happy1892 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Just about all the roaches I had jump and leap, sometimes with the help of their wings. But maybe the Saltoblattella (I think Blattella means little roach and Saltarae means jump in Latin) monistabularis jumps like a grasshopper very high and strong.
