How To Exterminate Cockroaches?

Effective and complete control of a cockroach population can be challenging as in most cases, the areas roaches live in are inaccessible. The best way to deal with a roach problem is to limit or remove food, water and shelter sources. Good hygiene and sanitation are essential. Removing food and water residues is very important. Limiting harbourage can be done by applying latex or acrylic caulking around plumbing and pipes, cupboards, outlets, sinks, toilets and cabinets. Store food in tight containers and keep all surfaces clean.

Mostly kitchens and sometimes bathrooms are the most common places where roaches are seen as they require humidity.

Glue traps and limiting attractants can be an effective treatment in most cases. However, pesticide treatments are required in some cases. Our technicians asses every situation and apply insecticides only when and where needed.

Where Do Cockroaches Thrive?

Cockroaches love humid and dark places and will run away in the presence of bright light. You will never find them openly crawling out on a sunny summer day. It doesn’t matter how many they are in a room. The moment you turn on the light, they will scatter.

Just like any other scavenger, when they discover there is plenty of food in your house, they will take up residence. Cockroaches are also attracted to garbage and garbage disposals, largely because, this is where most of the food always ends up. Having cockroaches in your building can also have adverse health effects to those living within.

How Do Cockroaches Cause Allergies?

Wherever cockroaches move, they leave behind traces of their existence. A few signs that you have a cockroach infestation include Saliva, feces, and parts of their bodies that they shed off as they grow. Just like mites, these cockroach parts that are left behind have specific proteins or allergens that are known to trigger asthma and its symptoms.

Apart from the proteins that cockroaches naturally carry, there have been tests done on cockroaches to examine pathogens on their bodies. These tests have revealed that cockroaches have the capability of carrying some serious diseases. Typhoid that is caused by Salmonella Typhi has been found on cockroaches. Poliomyelitis that causes Polio has also been discovered on these insects. Cockroaches are also known to spread dysentery, a disease that is known to cause severe diarrhea and bleeding.
