Before the assay the antennae, maxillary palps and labial palps were ablated, leaving the paraglossae intact, and then the paraglossae-mediated feeding response was obtained. The cockroach is offered a dyed stimulus solution containing D-glucose, and ingestion is also monitored through the clypeus and frons, the translucent front-middle area of the head capsule. The cockroach rejects D-glucose.
