Smokybrown Cockroaches
Smokybrown Cockroach
Description
The Smokybrown Cockroach is mahogany in color and ranges from 1.25” to 1.5.” This is one of the few large Cockroaches that can fly.
Detection
Smokybrown Cockroaches are primarily an outdoor pest associated with tree holes and dense foliage; however, if the infestation is found indoors, it must be eliminated. This Cockroach may move in and out of buildings as it forages for food.
Impact
Normally, this roach feeds on plant material (especially in greenhouses), but it can feed on almost anything that other roaches feed on inside a dwelling. Their presence is unsightly, and once inside, they can damage bookbindings, paper goods and clothing. Their droppings may also contaminate stored products.
Prevention
1. Sanitation - like all animals, roaches need food and water, so by reducing access to these conditions, the populations will become stressed and die.
2. Harborage alteration - Clutter is an excellent harborage for roaches and often provides high areas of humidity (moisture).
3. Perimeter Treatments - Professional perimeter treatment around the home is effective in reducing Smokybrown Cockroach populations.
