Tag: again??

Excuse me, ma’am, you are a tropical species mostly found in Central America and Mexico, please return to your assigned biome.

I found a banana cockroach in my room again. I caught one before https://bettsplendens.tumblr.com/post/160885794654/banana-cockroach-somehow-got-to-my-house-from , but this one is easily twice the size of that one. Probably a female by the look of her, all fat. 

Green banana cockroaches, though not native to Texas, have established small colonies after being brought over on fruit. Apparently we have a colony nearby, maybe in our neighbor’s greenhouse- these roaches like humidity. Fortunately, they aren’t usually invasive in homes, though they can be an issue if you have a lot of fruit.
