Die Wurzeln unserer Kokospalmen sind von diesen Gartenschaben befallen. Schädigen sie die Bäume? Wenn ja, gibt es Pestizide, die sie beseitigen können? Wir haben einige Yamswurzeln in der Nähe einiger Bäume gepflanzt und können sie noch nicht ernten, also suchen wir nach einer Art Pestizid, das die Yamswurzel nicht vergiftet. Danke.

No they’re natural decomposers of the eco system degrading dead dropped leaves but they hurt my eyes for sure 🤮🤢
THAT is a surinam cockroach (I believe). It can and will cause damage by burrowing as it is from a tropical region and typically comes in soil or houseplants. (I had a few from some snake plants). *My rule is to ALWAYS ask entomologists about insects vs asking gardeners!
It’s wild that they’re pretty much all female and kinda just reproduce easily like aphids. I would do some research, I’m no entomologist but I don’t go around giving misinformation whenever possible.
Good Luck!
Cockroaches eat whatever they can find, so best is to kill them.

I can confirm it’s a surinam cockroach. They are greenhouse pests, but they are very unlikely to kill a tree unless it’s dying. Most of their diet is rot like most cockroaches, but they will also eat roots and live foliage. Small plants and saplings are at more risk
