Keith Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I live in New York (not near city area). I have small wooded areas and empty lots near houses, do wild american cockroaches live here outside in warm weather? We have plenty of fallen trees that are decaying and garbage.

happy1892 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I see roaches like American cockroaches come into houses right beside the woods but in town the Periplaneta fulginosa I see much more common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vfox Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 It's possible but only if the species has migrated to or been introduced to that area. As well as it having established a large enough population to keep their numbers on a slow but steady increase. Otherwise you'll likely not see any.

The only American I've seen in New York was at Cornell Univ. But I've only spent one day in the THE CITY area, so... Good luck finding some Keith. In my opinion, they're the prettiest of the "pest" species I've seen. If you do, maybe all buy some from ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierre72 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 They already live all over the world. Yes but mainly in warmer climates. At least here in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy1892 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Yes but mainly in warmer climates. At least here in the states. They are actually common all over. You would probably see more of them in warmer climates because in hot days they are out during the night flying around. But I guess there is a bigger population in the hot areas but I am saying that there are many anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
