ABOUT THAT PET COCKROACH… ——– by Steve Nadis

Those of you who have a pet hissing cockroach–evidently a popular item in Madagascar due to the combination of “gentle nature, large size, odd sounds, and low maintenance”–may find the following news out of Ohio State University sobering: The cockroaches’ “hard bodies and feces are home to many mold species that could be triggering allergies in the kids and adults who handle the bugs.” So how about a goldfish instead? At least that’s the line I’m taking with my own kids.
