The cockroaches are characters who appear in the episode "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy IV."
Description
They are a pair of identical brown insects. They each have six legs. When they sit upright, they use two of their legs as arms.
Role in episode
They live in the kitchen of the Krusty Krab. When SpongeBob discovers that he can use Mermaid Man's utility belt to shrink things, he shrinks everything in the kitchen to make a small restaurant for the two cockroaches. He gives each of them a Krabby Patty. One of them scurries away with a patty on its back, while the other sits down at a miniature table to eat.
