About Cockroaches

A member of the insect family, cockroaches are typically viewed as pests and are unwelcome guests in home dwellings everywhere. They belong under the insect order "Blattaria" and it's believed that termites evolved from the cockroach. They have a very hard exoskeleton and it's often said that a cockroach could survive a nuclear blast thanks to this hard, protective exterior. (Let's not test that theory!) They thrive in warm conditions and have a segmented body and legs along with relatively powerful mandibles for chewing. They also possess antennae.

Dressing up as a Cockroach

Infest your next party dressed as everyone's favorite household pest, the cockroach! Available in sizes to fit adults and kids are mascot-style costumes, overstuffed in brown faux fur with a "segmented" body/underbelly of a cockroach. Brown sleeves with mitts are attached for wearers to put their hands into, while two sets of "legs" protrude from the costume's body. Also included is a headpiece with antennae.

Additionally, kids can dress up as Dr Cockroach from the new animated film, Monsters vs Aliens with a cockroach face mask and long, white lab coat.
