Why Preventative Measures Should be Taken to Avoid a Cockroach Infestation
These pests can stay hidden for a long time without being noticed. But by learning more about cockroaches, you may see a problem before it becomes a severe infestation.
What Does a Cockroach Look Like? While different cockroach species look slightly different, they are generally brown and oval with flat bodies. This shape and size allow them to easily find their way through cracks and crevices around the home. They can also quickly move across almost any surface with their long, spiny legs and specialised tarsus cushions.
What Problems Do Cockroaches Cause? Cockroaches pose a lot of problems whether they’re in the home or business, including:
Spreading disease and bacteria
Contaminating food and belongings
Causing allergies and asthma
How to Prevent Cockroaches
Cockroaches are fast multiplying and resilient, so it’s always a good idea to take preventative action. Some practical ways to prevent these pests are:
Finding and sealing cracks, gaps, and crevices in walls and floors
Fixing leaking taps and pipes to avoid moisture
Disposing of rubbish regularly
Keeping food stored in airtight containers
Cleaning dishes immediately after use (including pet bowls)
Products containing boric acid do work to kill cockroaches, but they also pose a safety risk when used incorrectly. The only way to exterminate cockroaches for good is with the help of a pest controller.
Cockroaches in kitchens are a sign that cleaning needs improvement. These pests come out at night, so make sure to clean dishes, wipe down counters, and remove all food before you go to bed.
For every one cockroach, there are at least ten more. So, if you see one or more cockroaches, especially during the day, it’s time to call an exterminator.
Cockroach bites are infrequent, but they can happen. Symptoms range from mildly itchy skin, nose, and eyes to severe allergic reactions. Wash the area with soap and water to reduce the risk of infection, apply an ice pack to reduce swelling and pain, and a topical antihistamine to relieve itching and inflammation.
