I have been told that the Palm Trees in Florida are full of Cockroaches and rats, is that right?

Ya mean the little critters or the human kind? I think you be right on both accounts.

Just kidding of course.

Well there's cockroaches everywhere. One thing we have in Florida is bugs. There's so many bugs that the roaches have a bug problem. As far as rats, I've never seen one in a palm tree. Tree rats (aka squirrels) on the other hand there are by the million. I HATE squirrels with every fiber of my being.

So in addition to the bugs we have tree frogs as big as your hand, snakes bigger around than a motorcycle rear tire and as long as a semi trailer, Eastern diamondback rattlesnakes 8 feet long that have a head the size of a salad plate, iguanas 6 feet long, alligators that live to be 50, 17 feet long and weigh 1000 lbs. and, in addition American crocodiles that are even bigger. The really dangerous critters though are ones you can't even see. Amebas that can cause meningitis and other flesh eating kinds of things that are hard to pronounce.

But the really, really dangerous critters are the two legged ones that shoot each other over a parking spot.
