It is tan to light brown, and has two dark parallel streaks running from the head to the base of the wings. Although it does not have wings, it is very skilled at flight and is able to sustain flight. Could someone fix that? Do they have wings or don't they? Also the second sentence seems cut off. I'd fix it but I honestly don't know if German cockroaches have wings.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.79.252.71 (talk • contribs).

yea, it certainly looked odd. They do got 2 pairs of wings.GSPbeetle ^{complains Vandalisms} 05:48, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Any chance of adding some roach abatement info? Perhaps something about boric acid, it breaks down the chitin of their shells. I'd do it, but I find its a bit presumptuous to add or remove something from someone else's article. Davepetr 04:11, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
