Which statement is true about the woods roach?

The woods roach is indeed not a normal home dwelling species, which makes that statement true. This species typically prefers outdoor environments such as forests and wooded areas. They are often found in decaying wood, leaf litter, or other natural debris rather than in human structures like many other roach species. Their behavior and habitat preferences are centered around these natural settings, which is significant in understanding their role in the ecosystem and in pest control strategies.

In contrast, the other statements reflect characteristics of different types of cockroaches or misrepresent the woods roach. For instance, many common species of cockroaches, like the American or German roach, are well-known for their tendencies to inhabit homes, making statements about nesting inside homes or being common home dwellers inaccurate in this context. Additionally, the attraction of males to lights is more characteristic of certain other insect species, not the woods roach, which does not typically exhibit this behavior. Thus, recognizing the woods roach's natural habits is crucial for proper identification and management in pest control.
