Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

Here are a few tell-tale signs that suggest cockroach existence to your premises:

• Droppings – black grainy droppings can be located inside the shelves and alongside the walls or paths which they walked 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 brown skins can be found close to where they are breeding as immature cockroaches shed skins about five (5) to eight (8) times when they mature to adult
• Egg cases – appear as small dark brown oval-shaped casings
• Damage – look for signs of damage on food packaging and organic goods including books and leather
• Unpleasant odor – a different musty smell when cockroaches present in massive numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around bathrooms and kitchens

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

Your property could be an ideal breeding ground for certain species of cockroaches. It can enter your property through multiple entry points, such as cracks, crevices, vents, sewers and pipe drains.

The most effective approach to keep cockroaches away is to deny them easy access to food, water and shelter, which can be the principal elements that bring them into your home or business

As cockroaches are nocturnal creatures that love dark, warm, moist hiding places in cracks, crevices, or hard-to-reach corners, the first step to eradicating an infestation is removing food sources and hiding places, particularly because cockroaches only return to habitable places.

For the best approach, it is best to call a pest management professional.

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

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

• Eliminate 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 – tidy up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and appliances. Empty the trash regularly and keep all waste in secured bins
• Declutter – remove old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard boxes and all other kinds of clutter from the floor or bottom of cabinets that may offer a hiding place for cockroaches
• Seal entry points – seal areas such as gaps around door, cracks and pipes to reduce cockroaches hiding place and access into your property
