LioN Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 so i was looking around and found that people breed plenty of incests for feeding such as locusts,mealworms (not the super seeing its not in NZ), crickets and so on. but ive found that there aren't any cockroach breeders is there a reason for this?? i no people feed their dragons and turtles them so why aren't there any around?

alanmin4304 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 If they escape and start breeding around your house they can be very difficult and expensive to get rid of because they are resistant to most insecticides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insect Direct Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 most of the species in nz are to much of a pest in nature. overseas they predominantly use large cockroach species (not available here) that are unable to climb smooth surfaces. making them easier to contain.
