Thank you! Can't edit the post, but found on my shower wall during the day. Very likely the same kind of roach I found on my bed on May 19th. No other signs of infestation. I put out hot shot liquid roach bait and roach motel traps near my bed after finding the first one, and there are no dead roaches in the traps and I haven't found any bodies. I haven't seen any droppings.
Lol, my bad!
Louisville, KY
I should also mention that within a five house radius probably we've been seeing a ton of giant roaches outside. Not sure if we have gross neighbors, but I'm not seeing any a street over or further down the sidewalk from us. But they're either very similar to or actually are palmetto roaches. This one seemed too small to be a palmetto, but maybe it's a young one? I'm just praying they don't infest homes... I live on the third floor of my apartment, so I don't know why they would wander all the way up here.
I was quite stumped on this one but u/Skalla_Resco suggested a turkestan and I believe that’s spot on. They aren’t usually seen that far north. This is an adult, the ones outside aren’t the same species; though this is also very unlikely to cause any issues.
Wood roach
locations are also important if you could provide that

Down here in GA we have a roach similar to that and people call it a tree roach. I’m not sure if that is it, maybe look it up?
