Dealing With Cockroaches

Sighting of cockroaches in your home 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.

Beyond health dangers, cockroaches produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and items they come into contact with. They are exceptionally resilient and can breed rapidly. A fast response at the very first indication 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 during the night, preferring to stay hidden in cracks and crevices during the day. They are attracted to food available in your property and will feed on almost anything from food grinds to animal droppings or faeces.

If you suspect a cockroach infestation, it’s extremely critical to take immediate action to ensure a quick solution to the issue and to minimise health risks associated with this pest.

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

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

The very best way to keep these nuisance pests is to deny them access to food, water and shelter. Without these, they cannot thrive and breed in your home and no infestation will occur.

As cockroaches are nocturnal creatures that enjoy 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 better to call a pest management professional.

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

Here are practical steps you can take to reduce the chance of an infestation:

• Remove food resources — keep dry foods in tightly sealed boxes or in sealed plastic bags and don’t 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 maintain all waste in bins that are secured
• Declutter – remove old piles of magazines and papers, unused cardboard boxes and all other kinds of clutter from the floor or bottom of cupboards that may offer a hiding place for cockroaches
• Seal passing points – seal areas, for example, holes round entryway, pipes and cracks to decrease cockroaches hiding spots and access into your premises
