causing the worst havoc to commercial and residential premises yearly is the German Cockroach. Therefore, Annual control against cockroaches is essential. There are also over 3000 types also including the American, Oriental and common Australian cockroach.
Cockroaches tend to feed on rotting garbage, scraps and are found in moist areas. Cockroaches can spread a number of diseases including salmonella and gastroenteritis.
Also, It has also been proven that cockroaches can cause allergies. The large cockroaches most common to homeowners enter the house during summer months and breed in cracks, crevices and dark places. Once the infestation has taken place they will hide under kitchen fixtures, also in weep holes and any damp areas.
They are more active at night seeking food and mate. The smaller type of German cockroach can infiltrate large areas. Once a property is infested it can take a length of time to control cockroaches due to their quick life cycle and breeding habits.
