: My mother spotted a huge bug on her apt wall - said it resembled a frog in size. It ran and hid in her radiator after she tried to get it. The management called this a "wood bug". Pest Control has been called but does anyone know what a Wood Bug is??? My thoughts are it's a Wood Roach.
: Thanks!!!

You don't mention where you are located. In Florida we have a Florida Woods roach which can grow to 2" long. We also have American cockroaches which can grow to 1 1/2" or more.
