Caption:

This photograph depicts a dorsal view of an unidentified adult cockroach, which was taken during a 1972 study of disease carriers, and pests of migrant labor camps. Cockroaches live in kitchens and dining areas, or other areas where food is stored. They also inhabit sewers and privies, and therefore, they may carry pathogens to food that can cause numerous diseases in humans.
