Abstract

In May 2013, more than 100 live cockroaches in the postal parcels from Germany were first intercepted by Beijing Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau. This event attracted extensive media attention. This article describes the current situation of keeping pet cockroaches worldwide, analyzes the risk of biological invasion of pet cockroaches, enumerates several foreign regulations for keeping or posting pet cockroaches, and gives some advices on the quarantine supervision for preventing the introduction of pet cockroaches. This article provides reference for better preventing the biological invasion of vectors of public health at frontier ports.
