What are cockroaches afraid of?

The natural enemies of cockroaches are spiders, scorpions, centipedes, ants, toads, lizards and geckos. A bird can also prey on cockroaches. In addition, cats, monkeys and mice can also prey on cockroaches, which are the natural enemies of cockroaches. Biological control is the most effective way to eliminate cockroaches.

Toads and frogs are the natural enemies of cockroaches. Cockroaches were once rampant in the small animal breeding room of the National Genetics Institute of Japan, and there was nothing people could do about it. Later, some toads were released in the breeding room. Soon, the cockroach disappeared. After dissection, it was found that the stomach of the toad was mostly filled with the remains of cockroaches.

High-footed spiders are also natural enemies of cockroaches, so they can be regarded as beneficial creatures. Because spiders have eight feet, although they are distant relatives of insects, they cannot be called "beneficial insects".

Geckos are also natural enemies of cockroaches. It is small and can drill into corners and corners that many people can't touch to eliminate pests. Even if the gecko cannot reach the cockroach's nest, it will wait at the mouth of the cave and come out to destroy one.

Cockroach natural enemies are more than that. in addition to toads, frogs, geckos and spiders, scorpions, ants, parasitic wasps, lizards, kangaroos, monkeys and mice are also common natural enemies of cockroaches.

However, in real life, such as killing cockroaches at home, because we are afraid, it is impossible to raise many spiders to catch cockroaches, and it is impossible to raise cockroach natural enemies such as scorpions, ants, parasitic wasps, etc., so it is mainly necessary to properly manage the environment and avoid breeding cockroaches.
