. . 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.<br>

<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
Now I guess I had better start looking around more carefully.<br>

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