German cockroach poop?

General Question

Hi guys,

This is my first time living outside home and I’m in a leased apartment in London. This morning I had left the dishes unwashed in the sink, and I saw a little bug on the dirty pan, looked like a small brown beetle (I have never in my life seen a cockroach on my home so I didn’t know what it was).

I searched and found out it’s supposed to be a German cockroach… I think it might have come from the kitchen drain but I’m not sure.

Right now I’m panicking and have been reading a lot about this. I have been searching through all the apartment in case I found something, and I’ve seen these little specks in one of the cabinet corners. Is it just dirt from the hinges, or cockroach poop? Maybe I’m panicking…
