About Cockroaches

 

There are three types of cockroaches. These are known as the Oriental, German and American cockroach. 

 

The typical size of a cockroach is usually around an inch long. Cockroaches have a flat, oval shaped body and if you decide to touch them they are very oily and warm. The cockroaches head is small and is covered by a shield. They have six long legs, these allow then to run very rapidly across almost any surface. Some species of cockroaches have wings that are flattened against their backs.

 

Cockroaches are generally found indoors. They are found in some areas like cellars, basements, kitchens, bakeries and heating. The Oriental cockroach can survive outdoors in Britain. Cockroaches will often remain hidden during the day using cracks and crevices.
