German cockroach, considered the most invasive and difficult of all the species
American cockroach, often referred to as waterbug as they thrive in damp warm environments.

Serious German Cockroach infestation.
Southern California is inundated with cockroaches, whether it be American, brown-banded, or the notorious German cockroach. Cockroaches are nocturnal scavengers that nest in large groups; so, while we are asleep, they are busy contaminating surfaces and food and a during the day hide in cracks and crevices in walls, door frames, in furniture, bathrooms, cupboards, drains and sewer systems, and even televisions and other electric devices. Cockroaches eat a great variety of food, including all food used for human consumption. They can also feed on cardboard, book bindings, ceiling boards, and their own cast-off skins. Cockroaches can move freely from house to house through drains, gardens, sewers and through wall voids. Cockroach control is vital because they are a prime vector for many germs and diseases which can have serious health effects.
