    I have had a pet Madagascar hissing cockroach.  I did this in order to overcome my phobia of cockroaches.  In wasn't very successful.  I easily got used to the hissing cockroach, but then, it doesn't act like the roaches you see in the house or garage.  It is very slow moving.  So I still have the phobia of pest cockroaches.

    The hissing cockroach is pretty nice.  It's best defenses are holding on tight, and expanding and hissing to scare predators.  I'm not a predator so I'm not scared of it.  You can hold it or put it on your clothes.  Just try to keep an eye on it as it slowly crawls around.
