Some Chinese documents say that earth cockroaches are effective in Oriental medicine to treat diseases.

Each cocoon will hatch 8 children, so each kilogram of cockroach eggs can give birth to up to 16,000 cockroaches. And from each kilogram of cockroach eggs, up to 40-50kg of dry cockroaches can be obtained. Cockroaches have 3 stages of growth like sesame seeds; The soybean-shaped type and the pea-shaped type are adult cockroaches.
