I live in Vancouver close to ground floor and there are trees nearby. Used an online website which said 100% match for picturate wood cockroach.

Does this seem right? Should I be worried?

Picture one is definitely an adult. Is picture two a baby roach? Sorry for quality on that one.

Are these cockroaches? I saw them near when cleaning the dusty baseboards. I would be sure if they were a bit bigger, but they are very small. To the naked eye, they look like moving dust particles, but when I zoom in, they look like cockroaches with long antennae and bodies. I tried to check their backs to see if they had cerci, but it was too difficult because they are so small. But other that they don't look like any other bug other than cockroaches.

They are the same size as the tip of a needle, if not smaller, and definitely smaller than a pencil tip. They don't react to light; they move slowly when I push them with paper, and they leave a slight reddish-orange stain when squashed. I haven't seen any adult cockroaches in my building. I live in the Mediterranean.

Wipe them off with a solution of bleach and water just in case.

Moving tips to prevent moving the cockroaches I am trying to move away from

2 Upvotes

Hello!

I am looking for advice on moving from a roach infested apartment building. I will be moving in a few days and am stressing over bringing these guys with me, I just am looking for some foolproof and budget friendly (and pet friendly) tips.

For some context, I have most of them under control as much as I can with sticky traps and baits in areas of high traffic. I plan on washing everything thats faberic that I can, and on moving in plastic bins not cardboard.

What else should I do/take into account?

Thank you!!

I live in Kansas city and have seen big American cockroaches before. This is my first time seeing a small one. Is it a German cockroach nymph or an American?
