Cockroach "bites"

i once caught a american roach in florida that bit me. it did not hurt, but it shocked me! i also have been nibbled on by a darkling beetle, wich is also not supposed to bite you!

 
ok so how do people ship roaches? specifically how do people ship large quantities of roaches? say about 200 to 100 of them?

 
Just got nibbled hard by not one but two Aeluropoda insignis. In their defense they were in the middle of a territorial fight, and I had just fed my snake so my hands smelled like dead rat. Not sure which of the two was the trigger, but I jumped when it happened! :lol: i don't want to call it a flat-out bite, but it was slightly uncomfortable.

 
I got bitten by a male Blatta lateralis once, as I let it climb on my finger. It wasn't defensive for sure. It either wanted to take a taste of me or it was hungry. Didn't hurt of course, but it was nasty and disgusting! I punished the roach later, as it was fed to one of my geckos! :P

Crickets and superworms bite much worse...
