I have been trying to find information about the south american roach blaberus fusca. The information Im curious about is "What do these roaches eat in the wild"? Are there any pictures of them feasting on there natural food items? Dwarf cave roach right. makes me want to think dead bats or bat POO. What other food items for the roaches are in the caves?

to my knowledge caves are full of dead organisms, layers upon layers of guano and moss (i believe). i could easily be wrong. i dont know if its of any help but down in the posarican slums on the coast of mexico ive seen thousands of giant roaches feasting on the garbage pits at night, mostly the one that contains left overs from meat and left over plant matter.

By me we have wild roaches that eat rotting logs, they are small in size and the males fly to lights.
