Appearance
Brown-banded Cockroaches measure about a 1/2” long and are tan to light brown in color. They have two light-colored bands that run across their wings and abdomen, which can occasionally appear to be broken or irregular, but are generally quite noticeable. These bands may also be partly obscured by their wings.
Where Do They Live?
Brown-banded cockroaches can sustain flight and can be found anywhere in an apartment or home. They have been found on the legs of couches, inside kitchen tables and chairs, pianos, window treatments, bathroom vanities, and living room wall units. Moisture is not a major factor in the success and survival of this insect, but they are attracted to warmth.
CONTROL
Brown-banded cockroaches are very hard to control and can be mistaken for German cockroaches which will prolong the eradication program because many harborage areas will be neglected until the insect is properly identified and treatment areas are widened to the entire living space.
