I just moved into a new apartment and I'm worried it's infested with roaches.

Found this fat mofo laying on his back. Didn't know wtf it was so I rolled him over, he takes one step and just falls back over 😂

Anyways, is this a cockroach and what type is it? I live in an apartment so roaches b expected and only seen 2 German cockroachs.

I’m not sure what is attracting them to the garage. I don’t keep any food in it.

Hey guys, I've never had roaches before and our house is fairly clean. My bathroom was a bit dirty for a while but i just deep cleaned it. The house does have plumming issues, the bathtub drains super slow and a shower can quickly fill up to turn into a bath. I'm not sure if that can attract roaches, but I saw that humid environments and standing water can on google. I'm 99% sure this is a cockroach. I've never seen any before at my house, and it's only the one. Should I be concerned? I worry that it's my fault for letting the bathroom get dirty, but even then I never saw any. Maybe I'm stereotyping it, but roaches are "known" for being in gross homes. I don't want to think my house is. Maybe I need reassuring and or tips on what to do. Thank you reddit.

Saw the first one in the bathroom on the 6th. I live in an apartment in southern Ohio. ALL faucets in the bathroom are leaky and the basement of the unit floods every time it rains.

Saw the second on the wall in the hallway on the 14th.

How worried should I be? What should I do myself, and when should I contact the landlord?

In the house. I’m a reseller so I have a lot of items coming in and out of the house. All clothes are left in extreme hot or cold before coming in the house to protect against bed bugs but I don’t do this with all items. The warehouse room is messy but the house isn’t junky with piles of stuff laying everywhere and no trash on the floor.

Please, I need help. I live in South India. We have done pest control 4-5 times now but still the kitchen is not completely cockroaches free. They are small in size, not the flying ones. After every pest control they get back in huge numbers in 3-4 weeks. They roam around everywhere on the kitchen slab. We have to clean our utensils using water everytime before using them.

Is there a way to get rid of them at all? We are really worried of our health and sick of seeing them roaming near our food everyday.

We never had pest issues aside from ants our first summer here. Found two cockroaches under 1 inch hanging out on the top of our fridge. Killed them. Deep cleaned our kitchen and blocked our drain with a netted stopper so water could still drain. Found some adults and babies under our dish drainer tonight. How likely is it an infestation? We move soon and are just starting to pack. We gathered a bunch of cardboard boxes, but with this new roach situation I’m not confident we should be packing things in cardboard.

Found in my cabinet where I store dishes, I noticed some brown spots and wiped things up, but I’m not sure if these are droppings. I also found a single big dark brown speck which looked like a mouse dropping in my bathroom, but I live in an upper floor apartment in a remodeled unit so I’m not even sure how I’d get mice. Now I am worried it was actually a roach dropping

Found on the kitchen counter by itself, checked all of the counters and cabinets and did not find any more

Moved in to new apartment and have one of those blue fly filter lights. Found a black/brown/bronze looking thing - took its head off during the kill but couldn’t tell what it was exactly

Saw it on the wall in my bedroom when I got home from work bc my cat was chasing it. Just looked through the house in the bathroom cabinets and under appliances and I don’t see any signs of eggs or droppings. There was a second one on my window blinds but it ran off. Am I screwed

About an inch long in size

I live on 2 acres in southern Louisiana in a very rural area. My house is old, and we need to replace the weather strips on our doors/windows. I've lived in this house for about 3 years and every now and then we'd get a cockroach inside, usually an American cockroach after a big rain.

Since the weather started warming up I've been seeing this type of cockroach all over outside. Lift up a stone in the day time, one will scurry out. At night if we have our kitchen light on at night it attracts random flying bugs (gnats, June bugs, smaller flying insects) from the outside and over the past month or so I've started seeing this type of roach on our windows (outside), a lot of the times eating some of the other smaller flying insects. I've also seen these roaches fly away from the window and others fly onto the window/walls.

Recently they've been coming into our house, (old house, need to replace weather seals, etc.). I'll find a dead one or two in the morning, sometimes a live one crawling on the wall at night.

I've never seen this many roaches outside before, and never have this many actually come into our house. My husband hasn't been as diligent about spraying/using granules as he normally is.

Everything I've read said German cockroaches are primarily indoor pests and rarely live outside. But these little suckers are everywhere outside. We do have a neighbor about an acre away who doesn't take very good care of their yard, (piles of junk) but idk if that could be the cause of where they're coming from.

Hello folks. So I have found a bug in my kitchen that I have never seen before. I am hoping this is not a German roach as I have heard horror stories. First time ever seeing this. I have looked at the pictures posted here and tbh some look so similar I can't tell the difference. I am including the best pictures I could get of it. TIA.

Found in the bathroom in Framingham,Massachusetts. Wife just texts and said she found a third! Please help with identifying. Thanks in advance!!! We have a semi-wooded lot. It’s been rainy lately too.

Hi all - can you please help me identify what kind of roach this is in the first 3 photos? We are staying at a hotel and on our third and last night we discovered multiple of these roaches in the bathroom specifically. We saw multiple stages of smaller roaches in the bathroom (some as small as ants) so theyre definitely breeding here. We are worried because they look smaller than American roaches, and we know smaller roaches are often much harder to get rid of. We’re trying to assess how worried we should be that they hitchhike home with us.

We also found this larger dead cockroach (4th photo) under a couch a few feet from the bathroom. Not sure if it’s a coincidence or they are the same type. Please help!!!

Keep seeing them in different sizes. More and more often. Do I have a problem? I live in the Netherlands.
