Is there any reasonable way to calculate the number of cockroaches in the US?

Cockroaches (Periplaneta americana) generally live in warm urban environments and thrive in harsh conditions. They are incredibly hardy insects. And they are considered pests.
Although people recoil from seeing one in their home or apartment, they are largely communal insects and one roach is a good sign that others are nearby.
Is there any feasible way to determine (within a couple of hundred million) how many cockroaches are in the US?
