Dealing With Cockroaches

If you have found a cockroach in your house, odds are, it’s not the only one. Cockroaches are social creatures or in other words, they belong to a community. Sighting either single cockroach or hive of cockroaches can be quite distressing. They’re carriers of infectious illnesses including salmonellosis, dysentery, gastroenteritis and typhoid. Besides the possible illnesses mentioned, they also have droppings linked to triggering eczema and asthma.

Most homeowners are aware of the health and safety risks associated with cockroach infestations, including allergies and asthma triggered by cockroach allergens, and the germs and bacteria they have been proven to spread.

Cockroaches are most active during the night, preferring to remain hidden in cracks and crevices during the day. They are attracted to food available on your property and will feed on almost anything from food crumbs to animal droppings or faeces.

If you suspect a cockroach infestation, it’s very important to take an immediate resolution to guarantee a fast solution to the problem and to minimize health dangers associated with this horrendous pest.

Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

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

• Droppings – cockroach droppings are easy to spot and these are black grainy droppings are 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 flat surfaces and wall floor junctions
• Shed skin – apparent of brownish skins can be found near where they are breeding as immature cockroaches shed skins approximately five (5) to eight (8) times when they grow to adult
• Egg cases – appear as small dark brown oval-shaped casings
• Damage – look for signs of damage on food packaging and natural things as with leather and books
• Unpleasant odor – a different musty smell when cockroaches present in massive numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around lavatories and kitchens

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

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

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

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

With a little detective work, a persistent strategy, and preventative measures, you can make your home an unattractive location for roaches, which won’t only manage an infestation, but also keep them in the future.

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

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

• Eliminate food sources – store dry food in securely sealed containers or in sealed plastic packs and do not leave food out, in an open area
• Clear all waste food and spillage – clean up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and appliances. Drain the rubbish on a daily basis and keep all waste in covered bins
• Declutter — throw off old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard packing containers and all different varieties of clutter from the floor or bottom of cabinets that may provide a hiding area for cockroaches
• Seal entry points – seal places such as gaps around door, pipes and cracks to reduce cockroaches hiding place and access into your property
