Hemsley Conservation Centre has come up with an unusual way to get back at your ex.

With the center's latest program, you can name a cockroach after your former lover if you're feeling petty this Valentine's Day.

The names of the insects will be on the conservation center's "roach board" at its cockroach enclosure.

If you're still hurting after an ex broke your heart, there's a new way to get back at them: Name a cockroach after them.

You can unleash your petty side with Hemsley Conservation Centre's new "name a cockroach" program.

Hemsley wrote on its website that the program was launched in time for Valentine's Day.

"For those that don't quite require revenge, there's another way to make you feel better about getting back at your ex this Valentine's Day," it wrote.

In addition to naming a cockroach, participants will get a certificate, but worry not — the cockroaches' new names won't appear on it, as the UK zoo doesn't want to "fuel a fire."

The names of the insects will instead appear on Hemsley's "roach board" at its cockroach enclosure.

Naming a cockroach will cost $2

Proceeds will go towards Hemsley's projects, according to its website and Facebook post.

It stopped short of allowing the public to adopt the cockroaches, saying it's "a little too strong, after all — you probably don't want to adopt your friend's ex."

For those who are interested in participating in the campaign, you can add the "Name A Cockroach" option to your cart on Hemsley's website.

You have to add "Name A Cockroach" to your cart, then add a note if you want your ex's name to appear on the board. HCC

Remember to click on "Add a note" at the checkout stage to inform Hemsley who you'd like to name the roach after. After that, head to the checkout and get retribution for the low price of $2 (£1.50).

Hemsley will share a photo of the "roach board" with the chosen names on Valentine's Day.

Now if that doesn't lift your spirits, what will?

HCC isn't the first zoo to launch such a program

The Bronx Zoo in New York also has a program for customers to name cockroaches after their current lovers for $15, as a symbol of undying love.

"After the chocolates have been eaten and the flowers wilt, roaches remain thriving and triumphant. Give the gift that's eternal and Name a Roach for Valentine's Day," the zoo wrote on its website.

Another zoo, Zoo Boise in Idaho, also has a program to name its cockroaches after "that special someone, your best friend, or your favorite family member" for $10.
