We present results of efforts designed to improve indoor cockroach management. First, outcomes related to the evaluation of various pest control products on German cockroach mortality. Second, for cockroach management plans to be successful, it is critical to understand their perception of pests and pest control. We present results of a nationwide survey of renters in multi-family housing, including their patterns related to cockroach control and reporting, attitudes, and preferences, including Willingness to Pay, towards complex-wide control.
