Guaranteed Roach Extermination For North Florida Properties

​​American Cockroach: Also known as the "Palmetto Bug," this is a large (up to 2 inches), reddish-brown roach with a distinctive yellowish figure-eight pattern just behind its head. They prefer warm, damp areas like sewers, basements, and around water heaters, and can often be found near drains and utility pipes.

​

German Cockroach: These are smaller roaches (about ½ inch long) that are light brown or tan and are identifiable by the two dark, parallel stripes running down their back. They are the most common and challenging indoor pest and reproduce rapidly, thriving in kitchens and bathrooms near food and moisture sources.

​

Oriental Cockroach: Often called "water bugs," these roaches are shiny, dark brown or black and about 1 inch long. They prefer cool, very damp, and dark environments such as crawl spaces, basements, and floor drains, feeding primarily on decaying organic matter.

​

Asian Cockroach: Nearly physically identical to the German cockroach, the key difference is behavior: Asian roaches live outdoors in mulch and leaf litter, are strong fliers, and are highly attracted to lights at night. They fly into homes accidentally and rarely infest indoor spaces.

​

Brown-Banded Cockroach: These roaches are light brown with two distinctive lighter bands across their wings and abdomen. Unlike most other species, they prefer warm, dry areas like bedrooms, living rooms, and high cabinets, often hiding in furniture or electronics.
