>>221313817The only cockroach I have ever seen in my entire life was during a grand opening for a Hannafords rebrand of a local grocery store, they had shipped in lots of wild stuff like coconuts and whole big sugarcane staffs, and we also got some grapes then found a cockroach in the bag.They exist in the US yet I've never seen one despite sometimes not cleaning my apartment for a long time.
