Maybe it was because it was a little description of his life. I think the thing that the author that wrote this book, Kafka, was trying to say Gregor was being used and his family barely cared anything about him. His father was abusing him for his own selfish gain. He was making Gregor work because supposedly he needed money to pay off a debt. When in fact, he already had more than enough money to pay it off and just making Gregor's life miserable.
I think he made him a bug because we (as humans) look down to bugs. We think they're dirty, they're unuseful, and most of all they don't do anything positive to the world. It would be bad if he used something that people liked because people would not understand it as much. It was a good book to use a cockroach to show that symbolism.
