Dealing With Cockroaches

Sighting of cockroaches in your house or business premises can be very distressing. They are associated with filth and are known carriers of infectious diseases including salmonellosis, dysentery, gastroenteritis and typhoid. Their droppings are also connected to trigger eczema and asthma.

Beyond health risks, cockroaches produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and objects they come into contact with. They are exceptionally resilient and can breed quickly. A quick response at the very first sign of an infestation is imperative to control cockroaches on your property and to stop the spread of this pest to your neighbours.

Cockroaches are most active at some point in the summertime, which prefer to live hidden in cracks and crevices throughout the day. They are attracted to foods available in your home and will feed on almost anything from food crumbs to animal droppings or faeces.

If you believe a cockroach infestation is about to grow on your property, it’s extremely critical to take immediate action to prevent or minimize health risks connected with this contagious pest. Prevention is better than cure. Thus, prevent cockroach infestation as early as possible.

Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

If you think your premises are infested by roaches, look for these signs that are indicative of their existence:

• Droppings – black grainy droppings can be found in the cabinets and along the walls or routes that they travelled on
• Smear marks – where water is abundant, brown and irregular shaped smear marks will appear on flat surfaces and wall floor junctions
• Moulted skin – evidence of brownish skins can be found close to where they might be breeding as immature cockroaches drop skins roughly 5 (five) to eight (eight) times when they grow to adult
• Egg cases – look like small darkish brown oval-shaped casings
• Damage – look for signs of damage on food packaging and natural things as with books and leather
• Unpleasant odor – a distinct, musty odor when cockroaches are found in large numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around bathrooms and kitchens

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

Your property could be a good breeding floor for specific species of cockroaches. It can enter your own home through a couple of access points, including cracks, crevices, vents, sewers and pipe drains.

The very best way to control or eliminate the potential infestation in your premises is to seal open locations where water and food are accessible. Therefore, proper sanitation of your leftovers should be properly dealt with.

As cockroaches are nocturnal creatures that such as dark, warm, moist hiding locations in cracks, crevices, or difficult-to-attain corners, the first step to eradicating an infestation is doing away with food sources and hiding places, especially since cockroaches only return to habitable areas.

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

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

Here are effective steps you can go for to decrease the chance of an infestation:

• Get rid of food sources – store dry food in securely sealed containers or in sealed plastic packs and do not leave food out, in an open space
• Clear all waste food and spillage – smooth up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and house equipment. Empty the rubbish daily and hold all waste in protected bins
• Declutter — cast off old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard packaging containers and all various kinds of clutter from the ground or bottom of cabinets which may provide a hiding place for cockroaches
• Seal entry points — seal regions including gaps around door, pipes and cracks to reduce cockroaches’ hiding place and access into your dwelling
