Wood roaches are known to occasionally invade homes and infest firewood out in wooded areas. Wood roaches look similar to the American Cockroach, however, they are smaller, with most wood roaches measuring about ¾ of an inch in length. For comparison, the adult American Cockroach measures at 1 and ½ inches or longer. As a wood roach reaches maturity, it will gain a light-colored band along the edges of its wings and pronotum.
Check around the outside of your home for wood roaches or for any signs of their activity. Native to North America, wood roaches live in moist woody areas. They can be found in woodpiles, mulch, under loose bark, branches, or decaying logs. Unlike other roach species, male wood roaches are actually attracted to light. You may be able to find male wood roaches gathered around outdoor lighting, around windows, or around vehicle headlights.
To get rid of a wood roach infestation on your property, you'll need to use an insecticide that will kill roaches and a wide variety of pests, like Reclaim I/T. To protect your property from wood roaches, you’ll apply Reclaim I/T as a perimeter treatment around your home at the labeled rate of 0.33 to 1 whole fluid ounce per 1,000 square feet of treatment area. Use 1 fluid ounce if you’re experiencing heavy pest infestations. We recommend you use a handheld pump sprayer since it will make mixing and spraying quick and easy.
After you’ve applied chemical treatment, you’ll want to monitor for further activity by setting up glue traps around common pest entry points. We recommend you use Solutions Pro Glue Boards. Using these is simple. Just peel off a trap’s paper seal and set it close to an entry point, out of reach of any children or pets. Its flat design allows you to set it discreetly underneath most furniture. Regularly check your glue traps to see when pest activity is on the rise. If you, a child, or a pet get stuck, you can use any cooking oil to loosen the trap’s stickiness.

Awe were you living? I’m in Texas and they are massive and abundant 😩. I cleaned up a woodpile and found a HUGE nest in the backyard of the older home I just moved into. Once I eliminated that it became manageable almost none. Also got rid of all cardboard and paper in the garage. Never used insecticides. Still have an odd one or two sneak in but I don’t freak out I just go after them with my chancla lol.
