 Smokeybrown Cockroach

 

These cockroaches prefer to live out doors. They are relatives to the American cockroach and look very similar. They are brown to black in colour. They are winged and may fly short distances especially at night towards lights. They prefer organic foods, but will eat other food substances and can often be found outside in trees, shrubs and wood. They can be brought inside on pieces of wood or may seek refuge inside during the summer.

Breeding

These cockroaches glue or drop their egg cases. One egg case can contain up to twenty-six eggs. These eggs can take anywhere between twenty-four hours to seventy days to hatch depending on the time of the year and the temperature. An adult can lay up to twenty egg casings in its life time.
