| Most commonly the American Cockroach, variously (though often
incorrectly) called wood roaches, water bug roaches, Palmetto bugs.
These aren't your cute little kitchen German roaches. They are large,
can fly, live outside and come inside for food.
Try to find some ProTech Roach Bait, or some brand of small cylindrical pellets, flavored with banana oil/extract.
They are a poisoned bait. Here in Houston we have poison stores where one can buy many of the poisons used by exterminators--they carry them.
Because these roaches live outside, broadcasting these pellets around the foundation
(and underneath, if you have one) stops them cold. It's like magic.
The label says you can use them indoors for German roaches too, but I
don't know anything about that.
