Cockroaches are one of the most common pests we deal with, coming across them on a weekly basis. They thrive in warmer environments and are naturally drawn to enclosed spaces like homes and offices.
Because they feed on human food, they commonly cause problems in commercial kitchens, hospitals, hotels, warehouses and other commercial premises that handle food. These are places that we highly advise to maintain regular cockroach inspections to ensure you catch unwanted problems before they effect business.
Some of the major problems cockroaches cause is they:
- Spread disease to everything they touch, which can be quite serious if they are found roaming round kitchens and food storage areas
- Breed quickly, which means having them assessed and dealt with early is a priority
- Can be hard to remove, as adults can live for u to six weeks without feeding
How Do I Prevent Cockroaches?
If you’re worried about a cockroach infestation, here are some simple precautionary steps you can take to help avoid more serious problems:
- Keep food in air-tight containers
- Don’t leave food scraps and crumbs lying around
- Empty bins often, and try to use bins with tight lids
- Get any cracks where cockroaches may shelter sealed
