Abstract

A 20-year, monthly tally of cockroaches in structures at Fort Bragg, NC, a permanent military base, showed German cockroaches the most prevalent, with American, oriental, brownbanded, and smokybrown cockroaches also present. During the 20 years cockroach infestations of oriental and brownbanded decreased while smokybrown cockroaches increased. American and German cockroach infestations were sighted most frequently in the fall.
