I've seen some people online say that keeping roaches (for example, as feeders) can cause you to develop a shellfish allergy. I know that due to certain similarities people who are allergic to shellfish can be allergic to roaches too, but it seems hard to believe that exposure to roaches would itself cause an allergy to shellfish. Is that really a thing, and if so, how much exposure is safe? Are there any precautions to take?
