I've a picture if one crawling on my hand somewhere around the place. I've the shell of another sitting on the side retaining wall. I'm pretty sure they don't eat greenery, but just the dead stuff on the ground (a but like our native, big, burrowing cockroaches, which we also get in the garden). Certainly they've no interest in our current plants, which are mostly trees.
