Hemithyrsocera vittata, cockroach care
Size: adults may grow up to 20 mm.
Activity: daytime; though it’s a very active species.
Terrarium: Hemithyrsocera vittata is an arboreal species and thus their enclosure should equally be vertically oriented with a couple logs to climb on and one or more foliage plants; Aroid plants will do fine, or similar looking house plants with an upright growth. I have Syngonium angustatum in my setup. If real plants are not possible to add, then go for artificial ones. Special attention must be paid so that the enclosure is escape-proof, bearing in mind that the nymphs are teeny-tiny, run fast and climb on any surface. Be sure to also check out our premium substrate. They also need some hiding spots to go under and hide themselves when they need to. These can be carton egg cases, cork bark, or hard bark from other trees.
