[Vision2020] Roaches, was tunnels

[Ellen Roskovich]

Sunil. . . I think the only roaches in Moscow live in the tunnels under the UI.  And this is a good thing. . .  and we should all hope they stay there.  They are HUGE!!  and they hiss.  One of my son's classmates brought some to class for "show and tell".  They ended up as classroom "pets" and I think they fed them cornflakes.  I can't imagine stepping on one. Yuck.

Janesta,

I've never seen a roach in Moscow.  This is the second time I've heard a roach story here, but I've still escaped them.

In Malaysia we had Periplaneta americanas, which would fly around outside and inside, and many other varieties. In Davis we had smaller, non-flying roaches, and I was relieved not to find them here.

Now I guess I had better start looking around more carefully.

In 1978, I went into the tunnels, as I was working for a company that had a contracted job down there.

It was heebie-jeebie time... HUGE cockroaches, in my imagination now, they are as big as Madagascar Beetles! HA!!   I did not think those critters existed in Idaho because of the cold. 

It was big down there, and there was evidence of people visiting for non work purposes. I don't have a clue how to get to them anymore. It was quite an exciting part of the job.
