What type of bugs do I have?????

Question

My house is infested with what I have always called roaches, because they were too small to be what I have always called cockroaches, but apparently they're not roaches. Because, according to the internet, the only type of "roaches" that exist, are different types of cockroaches. I was surprised to learn that there's not even a wikipedia page for roaches. Only cockroaches. I looked up different species of cockroaches on the internet, and none of them looked like the 1/2 inch ones on my house. WTF? Are there no such things as actual roaches???

Answer 6

"roaches" is slang for cockroaches. no matter, get home defense bug spray and follow directions on container. make sure you spray all baseboards, around plumbing pipes, and do this every two weeks till no more bugs. a roaches' eggs will hatch about two week time. the younger they are, the less chance of reproduction. the eggs can contain 100's per egg
