American Cockroach ( Nymph )

Periplaneta americana

Description:

About one fourth of an inch long. Two long, banded antennae. Six legs. Dark brown body. Light brown, and medium brown bands, running across the top of it's back.

Habitat:

I found this insect resting on the side of the kitchen sink, that is inside my house.

Notes:

I found this insect resting on the side of the kitchen sink, at around 4:00 p.m. in the afternoon. It did not move, so I was able to take some photos of it. I'm not sure, but it might be some kind of cockroach?
