This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madagascar hissing cockroaches normally come in a dark reddish brown or black coloring. It is hard to tell the difference between Madagascar hissing cockroaches and other large species of cockroach so it is recommended that you purchase your pet from a certified pet shop or dealer. The Madagascar hissing cockroach (scientifically named Gromphadorhina portentosa) is native only to the island of Madagascar. They are also commonly, and more simply, known as the hissing cockroach or hissers. Madagascar hissing cockroaches are common house hold pets due to their docile temperament and the fact that they are one of the largest species of cockroach. Unlike most cockroaches, the Madagascar hissing cockroach is wingless. As they are unable to fly they have developed an excellent ability to climb and scale a range of different surfaces. Their lack of ability to fly has again allowed this species to develop a tough exoskeleton to protect themselves from predators. This book was previously published by 'Pet Care Professionals' under the same name.
