More than 100,000 live cockroaches from non-native species have been confiscated in New South Wales, Australia, with an estimated value of up to $200,000. Among the seized species are Dubia and Madagascar hissing cockroaches, which are prohibited from importation and breeding in the country. Officials warned that these insects could threaten the environment and agriculture if they establish themselves in the wild, and trading or possessing these species could result in penalties for shop owners and breeders.
