How to use "Cockroach" in context?
The cockroach, scientifically known as Blattella germanica, is a common and often feared household insect. While there are countless types of cockroaches, the common German cockroach is the most commonly encountered. These small, brown and tan insects are the smallest member of the cockroach family and can be found in virtually any type of environment.

Cockroaches are partly scavengers and partly predators. They feed mainly on dead or decaying matter but will also eat fresh food if necessary.
