Description

The Cuban Burrowing Cockroach ( Byrsotria fumigata ) is a large, robust species admired for its calm nature and impressive size. With their uniform dark brown colour and smooth exoskeleton, they make a striking yet underrated addition to any invertebrate collection.

As their name suggests, this species loves to burrow and thrives in enclosures with deep substrate, high humidity, and stable warmth. They feed on a varied diet of leaf litter, decaying wood, fruits, vegetables, and dried foods such as fish flakes.

Non-invasive, slow-moving, and easy to handle, the Cuban Burrowing Cockroach is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced keepers who enjoy large, display-worthy roaches. They are also reliable breeders under proper care, making them a rewarding long-term species to maintain.
