We got them here in Dallas. I usually see them between March and October outside. And they pop up at least once a month in the apt. I hate those things with a passion. I hate spiders too, but I would rather have the little spiders around than those wannabee Jason Voorhees roaches. I'm thinking about buying some small geckos and frogs and setting them outside my apt before spring to find and eat the nests.

For some reason my mind was thinking op was referring to love bugs, man palmetto bugs are just flying roaches 
fukk dem roaches, fukk them love bugs and fukk them mosquitoes. Absolutely useless pest things that serve no purpose other than to annoy you and they need to be extinct.

Like a bumble bee?

Was That a “Palmetto Bug” or a Cockroach? Here’s How to Know.
Sorry in advance, but there’s bad news within.

Hell yeah they thrive in the south especially near water. The first house I rented in college was full of them, shyts would come out when we had chicks over on some joe’s apartment shyt
. We brought borax from dollar general and spread that shyt as a thin layer all over the house. I promise when I say after around 1 week there wasn’t a single one of them shyts living

Calling them cockroaches is disrespectful
Roaches are the size of your fingernail
Palmetto bugs are the size of small puppies
Palmettos are also highly attracted to light, meaning if the lights are off and u get up to go the bathroom, turn that light on you might get attacked.
Happened to me. 2am in the morning something buzzed right by my ear and landed with a loud thud against the door. Fell to the ground and ran for my gun til I realized it was a bug.
Had a small infestation cause the washer dryer was right next to the door and they crave heat so they were underneath the machines. Broke my lease, left my furniture and moved to a poorer neighborhood I knew for sure didn't have these monsters and stayed there for over 10 years til I could but a house and left the whole state.
I leave the lights on when I sleep to this day
