Dealing With Cockroaches

If you’ve found a cockroach in your house, chances 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 very distressing. They are carriers of infectious ailments such as salmonellosis, dysentery, gastroenteritis and typhoid. Besides the possible ailments mentioned, they also have droppings linked to triggering eczema and asthma.

Beyond health dangers, cockroaches produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and objects they come into contact with. They are exceptionally resilient and can breed rapidly. A quick response at the very first sign of an infestation is imperative to control cockroaches in your property and to halt 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 drawn to food available on your premises and will feed on almost anything from food crumbs to animal droppings or faeces.

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

Your property could be an ideal breeding floor for specific species of cockroaches. It may enter your property through multiple entry points, like cracks, crevices, vents, sewers and pipe drains.

The best way to fend off cockroaches is to deny them access to food, shelter and water, which are the main factors that bring them into your home or business.

As cockroaches are nocturnal insects which are into dim, warm, damp hiding spots in cracks, fractures, or hard-to-reach corners, the first step to destroying the infestation is taking out food sources and hiding spots, since cockroaches only return to habitable places.

With a bit of investigative work, a consistent strategy, and preventative measures, you may make your own home an unattractive area for roaches, so as 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 viable actions you could take to reduce the danger of an infestation:

• Remove food sources – store dry foods In tightly sealed containers or 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 house equipment. Empty the rubbish daily and hold all waste in protected bins
• Declutter – remove old piles of newspapers and magazines, 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 entry points – seal areas such as gaps around door, pipes and cracks to reduce cockroaches hiding place and access into your premises
