Exotic roaches in Florida

Just saw an article on Yahoo about the import of exotic roaches in Florida. I was unable to view the news article. Anyone seen it?

 
I saw a video too; They mislabeled two of the species as well. :P

They also stated that none of the possible pest species have been found as of yet, so it's only a precaution.

Must've been a slow news week if they're picking on roaches. ):

 
I'm not familiar with the article but Florida decided to ban exotic pet roaches a few decades ago (that's why vendors have a policy of refusal to ship there). That state is overrun with exotic roaches introduced by man and a few natives as well. None of the introduced species have anything to do with the hobby but facts never stand in the way of politics.
