Legality of cockroaches

I was wanting to get a convo going on the legality of cockroaches in certain areas. I came across a guy talking about Canada not allowing the sale or distribution of cockroaches other than for education or research. I live in West Virginia and was wondering if there were other people from here that knew the laws and such here or what the laws were for other places.

 
All of the research I have done for West Virginia is saying almost nothing so my guess for here is that it's ok to breed and sell. If you know differently please let me know.

 
I believe the only states with any cockroach regulations are Florida (for obvious reasons) and Tennessee. West Virginia should be fine.

 
I thought that in California Rhino Roaches were illegal, but I've seen a few Californians posting about their Rhinos' growth, breeding, care and sales on some other sites. I think Rhino's may just not be on any list, which means, if it's not on the list, than it's kind of illegal. I'm not too sure though. I know Ken the Bug Guy sent me a list of all the legal or illegal inverts to own in California, I'll try to find it and post it here.
