With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Indian Cockroach sighting in Kaohsiung on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 144th most-seen of the 218 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and June–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Indian Cockroach in Kaohsiung on a given day, against under 5% in May and September–March, the lowest months. Those are among Kaohsiung's wettest months, with about 270 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in February.
11th of 17
Of the 17 cities where we can rate Indian Cockroach sightings, Kaohsiung ranks 11th at about 10%. The best odds are in Xiuying District (China, about 20%), Davao City (Philippines, about 20%) and Manila (Philippines, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Indian Cockroach is recorded against all the insects logged in Kaohsiung (10 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
