What we see in North Texas

Cockroach, in short.

The single most useful thing to establish about a cockroach is whether it lives in the building or wandered into it. German roaches breed indoors, move between units through shared plumbing, and need a thorough job that carries a surcharge on the first visit. The larger outdoor species come in from drains, alleys and mulch and are covered by the quarterly plan.

Treating one as if it were the other is the most common and most expensive mistake here, which is why identification comes before anything else.
