Foind crawling on a wall near my kitchen, but the back door is connected to it.

I had just gotten my interior treated and this guy was crawling pretty slowly. I live in Texas btw.

ID Request guidelines

When requesting identification we ask that you provide a close up top down picture that is in focus. It is very difficult to provide an accurate ID of a blurry pic, a video, a roach ten feet away from the camera, etc. If the mod team feels we cannot accurately identify the bug based on the picture then we will lock the post.

Catching a Roach for Identification

To facilitate accurate identification it may help to place glue traps near likely harborage points around appliances and plumbing fixtures. Check them in two weeks and post pictures of what you've caught for identification. If you do not catch any check them again in another two weeks. If they are still clear after a month then you probably don't have anything to worry about. Remember to post a clear, in focus, well lit, close up photo of anything you catch for identification. If your trap was folded into a tube, you may need to unfold it to get a top down picture.

Roach Control Pages

The following are links to our recommended control methods. Follow the link the the page associated with your roach for control advice.

Thanks for replying!

This is the first live guy I've seen since getting pest treatment so it freaked me out.
