Oriental Cockroach

In many areas, the oriental cockroach survives quite well outdoors and spends considerable time there. It is typically found under debris, stones, and leaf litter, but also in wall and porch voids. It has been observed to survive outdoors during 13 weeks of almost continuous freezing weather.

Contrary to its common name, the oriental cockroach is thought to be of north African origin. It is also commonly called a "black beetle" or "waterbug" or "shad roach."

German Cockroach

German cockroaches are found throughout structures but show a preference to warm and humid places. They are usually found in kitchens and secondarily in bathrooms, but infestations often occur in rooms where people eat and drink. Any crack or crevice located near a source of food and/or water is prime harborage, and they spend about 75% or their time there.
