jayrockin:Building structures underwater, especially along the coast where scuds like to live, means waging a constant war against every algae and sessile animal in the ocean trying to colonize your granite countertops. Combined with their rather cavalier attitude towards littering, scud dwellings need to employ a variety of domestic organisms to help clean. Apart from invisible defense like antibiotic mix-ins and engineered anti-colonizer bacterial films, snoombas and cleaner roaches are popular sanitation measures. The snoomba continuously patrols the walls, floors, and ceilings of buildings; eating anything it finds. On the outside of structures, they will be quite territorial and will fight other snoombas and slow moving grazers for their prime patch. They are a common sight inside homes, offices, and public buildings as well; though they have to wear a little diaper indoors so that they don’t leave behind the same amount of mess that they consume.Cleaner roaches are a very social and intelligent little critter from a sister clade of scuds, and are commonly used to clean large buildings and outdoor spaces during the evening. They are nocturnal, usually kept in a little hutch in a janitor closet during the day and brought out by the janitor after hours to make the rounds. Unlike snoombas, cleaner roaches rarely need diapers because they can be trained to use a “litter box” in their hutch.PATREON | STORE | Runaway to the Stars -- source link
