Roach Control Treatment
Cockroaches are a major infestation problem in Eastern North Carolina homes and food service establishments. Cockroaches are prolific and populations can explode almost overnight. One German roach egg can hatch out more than 48 roaches – and in just 30 days will become an adult laying egg.
Cockroaches are shy and nocturnal and will mostly feed in the dark. When roaches are seen in the daytime this may be due to overpopulation or stress. So, if you see one cockroach in the daytime, you could have a serious roach infestation already.
Cockroaches are one of the toughest pests to treat on your own. Successful roach control involves prevention of entry, reduction of harborage sites, as well as removal of food and water resources as much as possible. Most Cockroaches invade homes from their natural habitat outside, with the exception of the German cockroaches.
Here are the two main cockroach species that infest homes in the Eastern, North Carolina area.
The American cockroaches prefer to live outdoors. They prefer damp, cool habitats, but they live outside and usually enter homes around plumbing pipes and foundation holes.
The German cockroaches often live indoors near water sources and live in cracks and crevices in kitchens and bathrooms. They are attracted to the warmth of running appliances like hot water heaters, refrigerators & freezers, stoves & ovens, and dishwashers. The German roaches are usually brought by hitchhiking inside boxes, bags, and appliances.
Our pest technicians are both trained and have first-hand experience to correctly identify and eradicate any Cockroach infestation. Properly identifying the Cockroach species is the first step in making your home or business roach-free.
