All summer, my Greek tortoise has been living it up in a large outdoor enclosure densely planted with TortoiseSupply broadleaf testudo mix. Over the past few weeks I've noticed the food disappearing at a faster rate, an figured he was eating it and even planted more at one point. Well, I went outside one evening to find tons of roaches all over the various plants. Now the food in the enclosure is essentially decimated, with only a few dandelion and burclover plants remaining.
It's probably too late in the season now to rectify the roach issue, and I have started putting food out daily, but I'm interested if anyone has dealt with this, and if so, what worked? I see Orange Guard recommended a few places on the forum for different bugs. I also found some ultrasonic cockroach repeller devices on Google.
The roach species appears to be of the oriental variety
