I think it might be a cockroach, but I'm not too sure. This is the second one today I've seen like it, and I really really hope its not a cockroach.




I didn't get a good picture of its underside.

Looks like a cross breed of Roach and Wasp...  

That's weird


ETA:  Oh, you live in Jersey... that explains it all.

Not a cockroach. It's one of the beetles. There are lots of different beetles...

Ok, thanks for the help guys. I was getting ready to start WWIII in my house with roach bombs.

It's not a cockroach.

I'm thinking a click beetle.  About how big is it?  If it is a click beetle find a live one and flip it on it's back.  It will do a pretty neat trick.

The first one I found (which I don't have a picture of unfortunately) was probably about 3/8  to 1/2 an inch long, and the one in the picture was probably about 1/4 inch long. They were both lying on their backs when I found them but they didn't attempt to flip themselves back over.

Not a roach.  Most likely some kind of beetle.  

This here is a roach:
