Cockroaches are ideal subjects for laboratory investigation at all
educational levels. Compared with many other laboratory animals,
cockroaches are easily and inexpensively maintained and cultured
and require relatively little space. They are hardy and are readily
available. The purpose of this book is to provide background
material and experimental leads for utilizing cockroaches in the
teaching laboratory and in designing research projects. The level
of difficulty of the experiments varies according to the depth of
understanding desi red by the instructor. In most cases at least a
part of each experiment or technique can be incorporated into the
laboratory component of elementary, high school or college
curriculum. Sections of the lab book are appropriate for courses in
Animal Behavior, Entomology, Organismic Biology and Insect
Physiology. Aside from this main purpose, the book also provides a
wealth of experimental ideas and techniques for a scientist at any
level of education. Lawrence, Kansas June 15, 1981 W. J. B.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. Virtually all graduate students who have worked
on cockroach research in my laboratory have knowingly or
unknowingly contributed to this book. The most important
contribution was from Sandy Jones McPeak, who encouraged me to
finish the project. Segments of various chapters were conceived,
developed or reviewed by Michael D. Breed, Sandy Jones McPeak,
Michael K. Rust, Coby Schal, Thomas R. Tobin, W. Alexander Hawkins,
