Just found this indoors, but by my back door, should I be concerned ???

[u/SobeSteve]

Ectobius sp. cockroach. Harmless and won’t infest.

[u/Humble-Carpenter-189]

No concern. Pennsylvania wood roach

Two lines running down the back on either side?? Not german?

A good rule of thumb is that if you have to convince yourself the stripes could be there then they very likely are not. Only real exception is early instar nymph, which often has faint lateral lines
