Getting Rid of a Cockroach Infestation

A cockroach infestation can be a tough pest situation for anyone to deal with. Whether you’re a homeowner or business owner, these unsightly pests need to be dealt with quickly to ensure the safety of your family, or customers. Cockroaches are notoriously hard to exterminate for a do-it-yourselfer, so it’s advisable to hire a trusted pest control professional to deal with these insects.

Cockroaches carry diseases and infest stored food, which spreads these diseases, through their excrement. Cockroach infestations can be serious if not taken care of in a timely manner, because of this, United Pest Solutions recommends contacting a professional pest control company as soon as possible.

Cockroach Infestation Resources & Information

Cockroaches are not a structural pest in that they do not do physical damage to buildings or surroundings; however, they can be a significant health concern and a difficult nuisance. Cockroaches can contaminate food products with their bodies or their waste products; they may also leave a disturbing odor in areas where infestation has taken place. 

Foraging cockroaches can also be vectors of disease, depositing germs or bacteria in areas that they infest and causing attacks of asthma in some people prone to reactions to cockroaches.

Commonly Asked Questions

Can cockroaches cause health problems?

Yes, cockroaches can pose health risks as they can contaminate food and surfaces with bacteria and pathogens. In addition, their feces and shed skin can trigger allergies and asthma in some individuals.
