Brown Banded Roach
Size: Adults are about 1/2-inch in length. Color: Male is light brown. The female may have dark brown wings. Both sexes, however, have the lighter-colored bands running across the wings directly behind the prothorax. The female and male brown banded cockroaches do not look much alike. The male is long and thin, while the female is more oval in shape. Like all cockroaches that invade buildings, this species prefers to spend much of its time resting in cracks and voids. Most of its activity will occur at night when it feels safe to move about in search of food and water. The brown banded cockroach does not seem to require as much moisture as German cockroaches, and therefore may be found in rooms other than kitchens and bathrooms. Brown banded cockroaches are omnivorous and will eat anything that possesses organic matter, even organic glues used in books and cabinets. Brown banded cockroaches are far less common than German cockroaches and are usually found in apartments, motels, and long-term care facilities. Like German cockroaches, these will be found in kitchens and bathrooms. However, because brown banded cockroaches can survive in drier areas, they will also be found in bedrooms, living rooms, closets, bookcases, etc. This behavior can make the brown banded cockroach a bit more difficult to control. Controlling these roaches can be accomplished in the same manner as those with German Roaches. Max Force Gel Roach Bait comes in an easy to use 60 gm. plastic syringe. This amount should be sufficient to bait an average size home, depending on the size and extent of the infestation. For best results, many different bait placements, about the size of a pea, should be put in all suspected roach harborage sites. After each placement move about 10 inches before applying the next pea. It is very important not to use any insecticides during the baiting program. The insecticides contaminate the bait, making it unappetizing for the roaches to eat.
