Common Types of Cockroaches in Arkansas

While there are around 55 different types of cockroaches in the U.S. only about 3 of those types are considered nuisance pests in Arkansas.

These include:

  • American cockroach: The American cockroach is the largest species of house infesting roaches in the U.S. These reddish-brown roaches have wings, antennae, and a yellowish figure 8 pattern on the back of their heads and can reach up to 2 1/8th inches in length (although the average length is closer to 1 ½ inches).
  • German cockroach: German cockroaches are the most common species of roaches in the world. They are light brown with nearly parallel stripes on their backs. These roaches have antennae and average ½ to 5/8th of an inch in length.
  • Smokeybrown cockroach: Smokeybrown cockroaches are another species of large, winged roaches that range from 1 to 2 inches in length. They are often dark brown or mahogany with a shiny, light-rimmed pattern on the thorax.

What Attracts Cockroaches?

Cockroaches are always searching for a place to breed that provides food, warmth, moisture, and shelter. Some of their favorite places to hide include bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, drains, and basements. Kitchens with sinks full of dirty dishes or bathrooms with leaky pipes are perfect for cockroaches.

Signs of a Cockroach Infestation

Unfortunately, cockroaches are nocturnal creatures, which means that you probably won’t see them unless you have a serious infestation. They say that for every cockroach you see during the day, there could be hundreds, or even thousands, more hiding away behind your walls.

In addition to actually spotting a roach, there are a few other signs you can look out for that indicate an infestation. These include:

  • A strong oily or musty odor in your kitchen, bathroom, basement, or anywhere else in your home that no amount of cleaning can get rid of
  • Smear marks along walls or cabinets
  • Small droppings that look like pepper or coffee grounds
  • Shed skin
  • Oval-shaped eggshells
  • Chew marks on food packages, books, and leather items

If you suspect you have an infestation, we recommend bringing in our Arkansas cockroach control experts right away. We know exactly where to look for cockroaches and can quickly identify the species and determine the best possible treatment.

Cockroach FAQs

How can I prevent cockroaches from entering my home?

To prevent cockroaches from entering your home, make sure to seal all cracks and crevices, especially around windows, doors, and pipes. Keep your home clean and free of food crumbs and spills. Store food in airtight containers and regularly empty your trash. Fix any leaks or moisture issues in your home, as cockroaches are attracted to water sources.

What should I do if I see a cockroach in my home?

If you see a cockroach in your home, it is important to take immediate action. Do not try to kill it yourself, as this can scatter the roaches and make the infestation worse. Instead, contact a professional pest control company, like McCauley Services, to properly identify the species and provide effective treatment.

Are cockroaches dangerous?

Yes, cockroaches can be dangerous. They are known to carry viral and bacterial pathogens that can cause serious illnesses and health complications. Cockroach infestations can trigger allergies and asthma attacks, especially in children and individuals with respiratory conditions. It is important to eliminate cockroaches from your home to protect your health.

How long does it take to get rid of a cockroach infestation?

The time it takes to get rid of a cockroach infestation can vary depending on the severity of the infestation and the treatment methods used. In general, it can take several weeks to completely eliminate a cockroach infestation. It is important to work with a professional pest control company that can provide ongoing monitoring and treatment to ensure the infestation is fully eradicated.

Can cockroaches fly?

Some species of cockroaches, such as the American cockroach, have wings and are capable of flying short distances. However, most common household cockroaches, like the German cockroach, do not have functional wings and are unable to fly.

What are some natural ways to repel cockroaches?

There are several natural remedies that may help repel cockroaches. These include using essential oils like peppermint, lavender, or eucalyptus, placing cucumber slices or bay leaves in infested areas, and using a mixture of baking soda and sugar as a bait. However, it is important to note that these methods may not be as effective as professional pest control treatments.
