British cockroaches are petite, casual, debonair; Egyptian roaches are the size of bull terriers, more in your face, often literally. I've never seen a cockroach in a private home in London but I shared flats with two varieties in Cairo and Alexandria: the toffee-coloured, scarab-shaped Egyptian and the spherical, tortoiseshell American version.
