Common Cockroach Types in Cyprus
Understanding the type of cockroach you’re dealing with is the first step to effective control. Our team is trained to identify the most common species found throughout the country:
Common Name | Scientific Name | Size | Color | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
German Cockroach | Blattella germanica | 13–16 mm | Light brown with two dark stripes | Common indoor pest reproduces quickly and thrives in kitchens and bathrooms. |
American Cockroach | Periplaneta americana | 35–40 mm | Reddish-brown with a yellowish figure-8 pattern on the head | One of the largest cockroach species; prefers warm moist environments. |
Oriental Cockroach | Blatta orientalis | 20–27 mm | Shiny dark brown to black | Prefers cool damp places like basements and drains; slow-moving. |
Brown-banded Cockroach | Supella longipalpa | 10–14 mm | Light brown with two lighter bands across wings and abdomen | Often found in dry warm locations; can infest furniture and electronics. |
German Cockroach (Blattella germanica)
Identification: Small, light brown to tan, with two dark, parallel stripes running from their head to the base of their wings. They are often found in kitchens and bathrooms.
Local Relevance: This is the most common indoor cockroach in Limassol and Nicosia, often carried into properties via grocery bags and cardboard boxes. They reproduce rapidly, making early detection and professional intervention crucial.
American Cockroach (Periplaneta americana)
Identification: One of the largest species, with a reddish-brown body and a yellowish figure-eight pattern on the back of its head.
Local Relevance: Commonly found in moist, warm environments like sewers, drains, and basements. They are a familiar sight in the drainage systems of major Cypriot cities, including Larnaca and Limassol.
Oriental Cockroach (Blatta orientalis)
Identification: A large, dark brown to black, shiny cockroach. They are sometimes called “water bugs” because they prefer cool, damp areas.
Local Relevance: Due to Cyprus’s warm climate, Oriental cockroaches are a frequent pest, particularly in basements and crawl spaces. Their presence often indicates a moisture issue in your property.
Brown-Banded Cockroach (Supella longipalpa)
Identification: A small, light brown cockroach with two distinct light-colored bands across its wings and abdomen.
Local Relevance: Unlike other species, they prefer warmer, drier locations and can often be found hiding in unexpected places like furniture, cabinets, and electronics in homes across the country.
