Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

When you suspect an infestation, it is Important to instantly locate it. How? By looking at some apparent signs. Here are some tell-tale signs that indicate cockroach presence in your premises:

• Droppings – black grainy droppings can be 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 brown skins can be found near where they’re breeding as immature cockroaches shed skins around five (5) to eight (8) times when they develop to adult
• Egg cases – look like small darkish 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 smell when cockroaches present in large numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around bathrooms and kitchens

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

Your property could be an ideal breeding floor 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 house 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, especially because cockroaches only return to habitable places.

With a bit of investigative work, a consistent strategy, and preventative measures, you might make your own home an unattractive place for roaches, in order to not only deal with an infestation but save you from getting it in the future.

Reduce The Risk of a Cockroach Infestation

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

• Eliminate food sources – store dry foods In tightly sealed containers in sealed plastic bags and do not leave food sitting out in open space
• Clear all waste food and spillage – smooth up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and home equipment. Empty the rubbish daily and hold all waste in protected bins
• Declutter – remove old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard boxes and all other kinds of clutter in the floor or bottom of cupboards that may offer a hiding place for cockroaches
• Seal entry points – seal places such as gaps around door, pipes and cracks to reduce cockroaches hiding place and access in your premises
