Dealing With Cockroaches

If you’ve found a cockroach in your house, odds are, it is 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 are carriers of infectious illnesses including salmonellosis, dysentery, gastroenteritis and typhoid. Besides the possible ailments mentioned, they also have droppings linked to triggering asthma and eczema.

Aside from possible disorders brought by cockroaches, they can also produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and objects that they come into contact with. Cockroaches are social animals, meaning they can breed rapidly and would cause infestation on your house or business premises. It’s better if we could avoid the infestation by implementing the simple treatment steps for us to eliminate these infectious pests.

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 nearly anything from food grinds to animal droppings or faeces.

If you suspect a cockroach infestation, it is extremely essential to take immediate action to ensure a quick solution to the problem and to minimise health risks associated with this pest.

Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

Here are a few tell-tale signs that indicate cockroach presence in your premises:

• 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 – in which water is plentiful, brown and irregular smear marks will appear on horizontal surfaces and wall ground junctions
• Moulted skin – evident of brown skins can be located close to where they’re 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 products including books and leather
• Unpleasant odor – a distinct musty odor when cockroaches present in large numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around lavatories 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 home through two or three access points, including cracks, crevices, vents, sewers and pipe drains.

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

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.

With little investigative work, a persistent method, and deterrent measures, you can make your home a resistant spot for roaches, which will not just deal with an infestation, yet prevent them later on.

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

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

• Eliminate food tools — 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 – smooth up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and home equipment. Drain the rubbish daily and hold all waste in protected bins
• Declutter — throw off old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard packaging containers and all different varieties of clutter from the floor or bottom of cabinets which may offer a hiding area for cockroaches
• Seal passage points – seal areas, for example, holes around entryway, cracks and pipes to decrease cockroaches hiding spots and access into your property
