Ever wondered how cockroaches seem almost indestructible? The answer lies in their exoskeleton – nature’s ultimate armour.
Unlike our soft skin, cockroaches are covered in a tough yet flexible shell made of chitin. This remarkable structure works like a suit of armour, protecting them from predators, disease, and even environmental stress.
Here are a few reasons their exoskeleton is so impressive:
- Strength & Flexibility – Layered for durability while still allowing movement.
- Super Tough – Can handle up to 900 times their own body weight.
- Escape Artists – Flexible enough to squeeze through cracks as small as 3mm.
- Survival Tools – Waterproof, disease-resistant, and packed with tiny sensors to detect air movement (which is why it’s so hard to sneak up on them!).
It’s no wonder cockroaches have been around for millions of years. But while their biology is fascinating, they’re not welcome guests in your home.
