Where else but New Jersey?

Cockroach race to amuse pest control pros at annual seminars

NEW BRUNSWICK -- Pamploma, Spain has its annual running of the bulls and New Brunswick is the site of the annual running of the cockroaches. Not just any cockroaches, but Giant "Hissing" Madagascar Roaches.

On Thursday on the Cook College campus of Rutgers University more than 600 of the state's pest management professionals will gather for a day of seminars led by the nation's leading authorities on all aspects of pest control, but at noon they will break for lunch and the 15th Cockroach Derby, during which two very large cockroaches will race down a 6-foot-long Plexiglas race track.
