Dealing With Cockroaches

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

Beyond health risks, cockroaches produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and items they come into contact with. They are exceptionally resilient and can breed rapidly. A fast response at the very first sign of an infestation is imperative to control cockroaches on your property and to stop the spread of this pest to your neighbours.

Cockroaches are most active at some point in the night time, which prefer to live hidden in cracks and crevices throughout the day. They are drawn to meals available in your home and will feed on almost anything from food crumbs to animal droppings or faeces.

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

Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

If you believe your premises are infested by roaches, start looking for these signs that are indicative of the presence:

• Droppings – black grainy droppings can be found in the cabinets and across the walls or paths that they travelled on
• Smear marks – where water is plenty, dark coloured and sporadic molded smear imprints will appear on level surfaces and wall floor junctions
• Moulted skin – proof of brownish skins can be found near where they might be breeding as immature cockroaches drop skins approximately 5 (five) to eight (eight) 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 organic products including leather and books
• Unpleasant odor – a distinct foul smell when cockroaches are present in substantial numbers
• Live cockroaches – usually found around bathrooms and kitchens

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

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

The most effective 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 insects which are into dim, warm, moist hiding spots in cracks, fractures, or hard-to-reach corners, the initial step to destroying the infestation is taking out food sources and hiding spots, since cockroaches just return to habitable places.

With a little detective work, a persistent strategy, and preventative measures, you can make your home an unattractive place for roaches, which won’t only manage an infestation, but also prevent them 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 resources – store dry food in securely sealed containers or in sealed plastic packs and do not leave food out, in an open space
• Clear all waste food and spillage – tidy up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and appliances. Empty the garbage regularly and keep all waste in bins that are secured
• Declutter – cast off old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard packaging containers and all various varieties of clutter from the floor or bottom of cabinets which may provide a hiding place for cockroaches
• Seal entry points — seal areas including gaps around door, cracks and pipes to reduce cockroaches’ hiding area and access into your dwelling
