Size: 1"
These insects are living in my garden. They come out when I water. Looks like a roach of some kind, but I cannot find it in the guide. I have never experienced roaches in a garden!! All ID help is appreciated. Thanks!

wood roach
It looks like some type of Parcoblatta genus wood roach to me, similar to this one, if not the same.
