How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Generally, roaches can vary anywhere from one-half to 3 inches long. For example, the most common roach discovered inside is the German roach. The German roach is attracted to water. Reducing access to water sources in your home can help decrease a roach infestation.

There are lots of other prevention methods as well, such as daily cleaning and proper food storage, to stop an infestation. But how do you get rid of cockroaches once they have already entered your dwelling?

If insecticides have been used in a building, there is a risk that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. These harborages need to be found and treated. It may not be possible to eliminate all of the German cockroaches in a building completely if a consistent supply of cockroaches is carried to the premises via bundles or food shipments. You can discuss this with our licensed technicians for effective cockroach control in your house or business.
