Banana Roaches are soft-bodied, fast-moving feeder insects known for their vivid leaf-green color and strong flying ability. Native to tropical regions, they thrive in warm, humid environments and are ideal for small insectivorous reptiles like geckos and anoles. Their high moisture content and active behavior make them a nutritious, stimulating prey option.
Key Features:
Bright green adults; dark burrowing nymphs
Soft-bodied and easy to digest
High humidity and secure enclosures required
Excellent for hydration and natural hunting enrichment
Care Tip: Maintain 75–85°F with high humidity. Use smooth-sided containers with tight lids to prevent escapes.
