Turkestan Cockroaches
Turkestan cockroaches (Blatta lateralis), a common pest in Las Vegas, are fast becoming a significant concern for homeowners and businesses alike. These roaches, often mistaken for American cockroaches, are easily identifiable by their reddish-brown color and the yellowish stripes on their wings. Male Turkestan roaches are particularly noticeable due to their light-colored wings, which are longer than their bodies, while females are darker and have shorter wings.
Originally from Central Asia, Turkestan roaches have spread rapidly across the southwestern United States, thriving in the warm desert climate of Las Vegas. They prefer to live outdoors in moist, sheltered areas such as under rocks, in mulch, and around irrigation systems. However, they often invade homes and businesses in search of food and water, making them a significant nuisance.

Turkestan roaches are more than just a creepy presence; they can carry harmful bacteria and contaminate food, posing health risks to your family or customers. DIY methods might offer temporary relief, but these resilient pests often require professional intervention.
