Not recommended for keeping
Cockroaches hide during the day and come out at night, showing obvious diurnal activity rhythm. The activities and reproduction of cockroaches, like other insects, are influenced by temperature. Under normal circumstances, the seasonal fluctuations of cockroaches are manifested as changes in the population or community due to changes in temperature. Cockroaches can carry pathogenic bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi, and eggs of parasitic worms, and can serve as intermediate hosts for various worms. Cockroaches prefer warm, humid, food-rich, and creviced habitats. They like darkness and fear light, hiding during the day and coming out at night, which is also an important habit of cockroaches. During the day, they hide in dark places to avoid light.
