3. Confirm that you indeed have a cockroach infestation. Look for
signs such as live cockroaches, egg casings (known as
oothecae), droppings, or a musty odor in areas where
cockroaches are commonly found, such as kitchens,
bathrooms, and basements.
4. Cockroaches thrive in cluttered areas as they provide hiding spots and easy access to
food. Declutter your home, especially in areas like storage spaces, closets, and
basements, to reduce potential hiding places for cockroaches
5. Cockroach baits are effective in
controlling and eliminating infestations.
Place bait stations in areas where
cockroaches are commonly found, such
as behind appliances, under sinks, and
along baseboards.
Inspect your home for any
gaps, cracks, or openings that
cockroaches can use to enter.
Seal these entry points with
caulk or weatherstripping to
prevent their access.
