Dealing With Cockroaches

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

Aside from possible ailments brought by cockroaches, they can also produce an obnoxious odor that taints food and objects that they come into contact with. Cockroaches are social animals, meaning they can breed rapidly and would lead to infestation on your house or business premises. It’s better if we can avoid the infestation by implementing the simple treatment measures for us to get rid of these infectious pests.

What attracts cockroaches more than anything is food. Dispose of any food that has been abandoned or removing access to food can help eliminate a roach problem. Throw away your garbage nightly since cockroaches are active during the night. They prefer to remain hidden in cracks and crevices during the day.

Signs You Have a Cockroach Problem

• Smear marks – where water is a lot, dark coloured and irregular molded smear imprints will appear on level surfaces and wall floor junctions
• Shed skin – apparent of brown skins can be discovered near where they’re breeding as immature cockroaches drop skins approximately five (5) to eight (8) times when they grow to adult

How To Get Rid of Cockroaches

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

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

As cockroaches are nocturnal creatures that like dark, warm, moist hiding locations in cracks, crevices, or difficult-to-attain corners, the first step to eradicating an infestation is doing away with food sources and hiding places, especially since cockroaches only return to habitable areas.

With a little detective work, a persistent strategy, and preventative measures, you can make your home an unattractive location for roaches, which won’t only handle an infestation but slso 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:

• Get rid of food sources – 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 – smooth up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and house equipment. Empty the rubbish daily and maintain all waste in protected bins
• Declutter – cast off old stacks of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard packing containers and all different varieties of clutter from the floor or bottom of cabinets which may offer a hiding place for cockroaches
• Seal entry points — seal regions including gaps around door, pipes and cracks to reduce cockroaches’ hiding place and access into your dwelling

Frequently Asked Questions

Are my pets at home affected by the treatment you employ?

The security of your pet is very important to us. You may rest assured that any active component they may come into contact with, either when it’s still damp or through inhalation or ingesting it, is a tiny amount.

Can the spray cause any problems to humans?

The spray we employ is typically used in public places like schools and hospitals and does not cause any harm to humans.

What do I do if accidently touch any of the areas treated with a spray?

This will only be of concern if the spray areas are still damp. If this happens, wash with soap and lots of water as fast as you possibly can. After a relatively short period of time, the water carrier tap water has been dissolved and won’t harm you in any way when you come in contact with the area.
