Dealing With Cockroaches

The glimpse of cockroaches in your house or business premises can be quite distressing. They are linked to filth and are the reason for infectious illnesses such as salmonellosis, dysentery, gastroenteritis and typhoid. Their droppings are also related to cause eczema and allergies.

Beyond health risks, cockroaches produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and things they come into contact with. They are exceedingly resilient and may breed quickly. Fast response on the very first indication of an infestation is important to govern cockroaches on your house and to prevent the unfold of the pest in your neighbours.

What attracts cockroaches more than anything is food. Dispose of any food that has been abandoned or removing access to food can help eliminate a roach issue. Throw away your garbage nightly since cockroaches are active throughout the night. They prefer to remain hidden in cracks and crevices during the day.

If infestation is suspected, it a great thing to do preventative measures like cleaning the infestation site and overall households. However, if the infestation is large, cleaning, using pesticides and even do-it-your own measures can’t guarantee complete eradication.

Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

Here are a few tell-tale signs that indicate cockroach presence in your premises:

• Droppings – black grainy droppings can be found in the cabinets and along the walls or paths that they travelled on
• Smear marks – where water is abundant, brown and irregular shaped smear marks will appear on horizontal surfaces and wall floor junctions
• Moulted skin – evident of brownish skins can be found close to where they’re breeding as immature cockroaches shed skins about five (5) to eight (8) times when they mature to adult
• Egg cases – look like small darkish brown oval-shaped casings
• Damage – search for signs of harm on food packages and organic products including leather and books
• Unpleasant odor – a different musty odor when cockroaches present in large numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around bathrooms and kitchens

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

Any property could be an ideal breeding ground for cockroaches. Especially if the property has lots of factors where cockroaches are attracted to. They are easy to spot on premises with cracks, crevices, and their infestation may disperse over vents, sewers and pipe drain

The best way to fend off cockroaches is to deny them access to food, water and shelter, which are the main factors that attract them into your house or business.

Unlike some of the other insects, cockroaches are a year-round issue. Practicing preventative measures can help reduce an infestation, but a variety of treatments may be necessary to eliminate one. Some applications aren’t effective when done improperly.

With a bit of investigative work, a consistent strategy, and preventative measures, you may make your own home an unattractive place for roaches, in order to not only deal with an infestation but save you from getting it in the future.

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

Here are viable steps you could take to reduce the danger of an infestation:

• Remove food resources – keep dry foods in tightly sealed boxes or in sealed plastic bags and do not go away with food sitting out in the open place
• Clear all waste food and spillage – clean up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and appliances. Drain the garbage on a daily basis and keep all waste in covered bins
• Clean up – eliminate old piles of papers and magazines, unused cardboard boxes and each other kind of clutter from the floor or base of pantries that may give a hiding place to cockroaches
• Seal entry points – seal areas such as gaps around door, cracks and pipes to reduce cockroaches hiding place and access in your premises
