Pretty sure we don't have any flightless Lord Howe Island Wood Feeding Cockroaches in Southern Oregon though I thank you for your concern. These types of insects eat wet rotting wood, again, not my house.
Have someone read this to you:
[FTA] They may not be cute and cuddly, but the cockroaches are cornerstones of maintaining a healthy ecosystem on the island, acting as important nutrient recyclers, important in speeding the breakdown of logs and as a food source for other species.
