Cockroaches come in different sizes and species. Knowing which type you have around can help you determine how much of a problem they are and when it\u2019s time to get help from NJ pest control services<\/a>.<\/p>\n

American Cockroaches<\/strong><\/p>\n

American cockroaches<\/a> are large, light brown bugs that mainly prefer living outdoors in humid environments. They can be a problem if they infest garbage cans and other outdoor areas, but they\u2019re not as much of a problem indoors.<\/p>\n

Oriental Cockroaches<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oriental cockroaches are large, dark brown or black bugs that also prefer outdoor environments. They seldom come indoors, although they might wander into humid indoor environments from time to time.<\/p>\n

German Cockroaches<\/strong><\/p>\n

German cockroaches, which are smaller and light brown, are the ones that are mainly a problem for homeowners. These bugs are commonly seen inside houses and other buildings looking for food, water and shelter. They can spread germs around as they move about, making them a health problem as well.<\/p>\n

Brown-banded Cockroaches<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brown-banded cockroaches<\/a> are also smaller, although they\u2019re darker in color than German cockroaches. These striped or banded bugs are usually seen outdoors, where they run around looking for food and water.<\/p>\n
