There's 100% cockroaches in Germany, there is literally a species of cockroach called "german cockroach"

yeah, they were first believed to have originated from germany; currently science places them as an southeast asian expatriate with a pit stop in NE africa. It's too cold for them to live outside of human settlements in germany, although i'm pretty sure that will change in the next years, and then the name fits at last.
