Temperatures for Panchlora nivea and Panchlora sp. "giant"

Blattodea313

Seventh Instar
What is the highest temperature that they can stand? I have an exo-terra 50W infrared bulb that I want to use to heat them, but I'm not sure if it will get to hot. Is it ok to put the dome fixture directly on the screen top? Thanks in advance.

I don't know what is the highest temp but I have kept P. Nivea in 95 f before. They did fine.

You can put that light no problem but I would recommend you cover the screen or else you will dry out the cage and subsequently dry out the roaches causing a slow and painful dehydration.
