		The most commonly encountered cockroaches are Blatella germanica (German cockroach), Periplaneta americana (American cockroach) and Blattella orientalis (Oriental cockroach).
		Based on previous reports, it has been demonstrated that B. germanica is the most common and P. Americana one of the commonest cockroach species in our country[13].

		Skin test (ST) effect with Blatella germanica and/or Periplaneta americana on the FEV1 and PEF in children with respiratory allergy
		Objective: To detect early and delayed changes in the FEV1 and PEF in children with respiratory allergy sensitive to Blatella germanica (Bg) and Periplaneta americana (Pa) submitted to skin test with these allergens.
		These results demonstrate that it is necessary to watch over the patient for more than a few minutes after skin test, as a delayed response is possible for up to 48 hours.

		Humanity's long war to eradicate roaches has had little to no effect on Blattodea, other than to render some species such as P.

		Recent research indicates that termites (order Isoptera) are directly derived from cockroaches, with the cockroach genus Cryptocercus being more closely related to termites than it is to other cockroaches; in other words, order Blattodea is paraphyletic if termites are excluded.

		We tested whether host recognition by entomopathogenic nematodes occurs through contact with insect gut contents and whether this recognition is important to successful infection.
		Behavioral responses of 4 species of entomopathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Steinernema carpocapsae, Steinernema glaseri, and Steinernema scapterisci, were studied during contact with the gut contents of insects of 4 species: Acheta domesticus, Blatella germanica, Popillia japonica, and Spodoptera exigua.
		During contact with gut contents of insects of 1 or more species, the nematodes reduced the duration of forward crawling and increased the frequency and/or duration of 1 or more search parameters, including head waving, body waving, backward crawling, stopping, head rubbing, and head thrusting.

		The repellency of Aromatic Eastern Redcedar wood was evaluated against German, Blattella germanica, and brownbanded, Supella longipalpa, cockroaches and the firebrat, Thermobia domestica.
		The purpose of this study was to investigate the repellent effects of cedar on the two most important indoor cockroach pests (MAMPE, 1972; EBELING, 1975), the German, Blatella germanica, and the brownbanded, Supella longipalpa, and against a major silverfish pest, the firebrat, Thermobia domestica.
		Both cockroach species are found worldwide primarily in apartments, low-income housing, restaurants and hospitals.

		Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and Steinernema glaseri showed behavioral responses to contact with feces of their natural hosts, Spodoptera exigua (Lepidoptera) and Popillia japonica (Coleoptera), and to the experimental hosts, Acheata domesticus (Orthoptera) and Blatella germanica (Blatteria).
		Steinernema carpocapsae responded only to B. germanica feces, whereas S. scapterisci did not significantly respond to any of the insect species.
