Do cockroaches have predators?

We think way too negatively about cockroaches. Yes, for us cockroaches are not very beneficial but for other creatures, cockroaches provide a healthy source of nutrients such as protein. These insects are an excellent source of many healthy nutrients that animals like amphibians and reptiles get once they feed on it. Some of the most common predators that cockroaches have are mentioned below.
1.     Toads
2.     Lizards
3.     Frogs
4.     Wasps 
5.     Beetles
6.     Entomopathogenic fungi

All the above animals have a unique and distinct way of attacking cockroaches. Just like all other animals that exist, cockroaches play an important part in maintaining the ecosystem. Toads and frogs are often confused even though they are two completely different animals. Lizards, toads, and frogs have a striking similarity when it comes to preying on cockroaches; they stick their long tongue out and once it is in their mouth; they use strong jaws to crush them completely so that they can engulf the cockroaches easily. Wasps eat cockroaches differently by laying their egg inside the body of an adult cockroach. Next, when the egg hatches, it eats the cockroach before it has a chance to fight back. When it comes to Entomopathogenic fungi, certain species of it infect the cockroaches and proceed to kill them gradually which can often take weeks.  All the listed predators have a rather different approach when it comes to preying on cockroaches. They have their individual ways in which these creatures use to make cockroaches digestible. Not only this but some people also feed cockroaches to their pets such as iguanas. The reason why cockroaches make an ideal food source for such pets is that they are inexpensive and nutritious at the same time.
