Types of Cockroaches in Arizona

Did you know that there are two categories of cockroach: domestic and peridomestic? Domestic cockroaches have evolved to live exclusively with humans. Meanwhile, peridomestic roaches do not have to live in human environments but can.

Domestic cockroaches include:

• Brown-banded cockroach
• German cockroach - German cockroaches are the most common cockroach species worldwide. You can identify them by their oval shape and two black lines located on their back.

Peridomestic cockroaches include:

• American cockroach - Also known as a water bug, the American cockroach is the largest of the common house-infesting roaches. Their large size and the figure eight design on the back of their heads are ways to easily identify this type of roach.

• Oriental cockroach - Sometimes referred to as black beetle cockroaches, the Oriental cockroach is another species of large cockroach that infects homes. This species is easily identifiable by it's shiny, black body.

• Smoky brown cockroach
• Turkistan cockroach - The Turkistan cockroach can be challenging to identify to the untrained eye, as males of this species looking like a smaller American cockroaches, while females of the species resembling the Oriental cockroach.

Cockroaches are notoriously hardy and can survive in a variety of environments. Additionally, they are scavengers who will eat a wide range of food, including sugary items, meats, and starches. They have even been known to consume organic matter we would not consider food, such as decaying wood and paper materials.

If you have cockroaches, you may be struggling to figure out how they got into your home. As they are small, they can sneak in through cracks and holes that may not initially seem big enough. They are also often tracked inside in boxes, bags, and crates. If you live in an apartment building, they may also migrate over from neighboring units. Additionally, if you've had a significant weather change, you may see cockroaches like the American, Asian, and Turkistan varieties move inside.
