Global trade in the 19th and 20th centuries allowed the scavengers to infiltrate most of the world’s nooks and crannies, and indoor plumbing and heating enticed them to stay.”</p><p><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/20/science/cockroach-evolution-cities.html?unlocked_article_code=1.tk0.Y69D.TO6WAKXLQVpC&amp;amp;smid=url-share" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nytimes.com/2024/05/20/science</span><span class="invisible">/cockroach-evolution-cities.html?unlocked_article_code=1.tk0.Y69D.TO6WAKXLQVpC&amp;amp;smid=url-share</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/cockroach" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cockroach</span></a></p>
