Flying Green Cockroaches...

Dear Angus:

I do have "some nice roaches." Mantids LOVE them. The flying green adults are highly attractive to mantids that prefer to feed on raised perches...and the small(er) brown babies are suitable for all save the most tiny possible mantid hatchlings...but there is a catch;I need money more than the animal bartering arrangements that you prefer.

Should you decide to buy I do have an ad for my "Panchlora nivea;"
which are informally known as "Green Banana Bugs" and "Flying Green Cockroaches..." and my ad does include instructions upon their care. It's in "Classified Ads," category "Insects," subcategory "Blattodae."

Happy culturing!

Yours very truly,
Louise E. Rothstein
