What Are Roaches?
Roaches are resilient insects that can grow up to 2 inches in length. They are characterized by 6 legs, 2 long antennae, and, in some cases, wings. Despite their durability, most roaches cannot fly. These pests are notorious for spreading diseases due to their tendency to thrive in unsanitary areas like garbage bins and food waste zones.
Why Roaches Are Dangerous
Roaches pose significant health risks, making their presence a serious concern for homeowners and businesses. They are carriers of harmful bacteria and pathogens, leading to food contamination and potential allergic reactions. Their feces, shed skin, and saliva can also trigger asthma symptoms, especially in children.
Signs of a Roach Infestation
Spotting roaches early can help prevent a full-blown infestation. Here are some key indicators:
- Feces - Roach droppings resemble brown coffee grounds or black pepper. Larger infestations leave noticeable quantities of feces, particularly in cabinets, pantries, behind stoves, and near refrigerators.
- Roach Eggs - These appear as brown, oblong sacs that can contain up to 50 eggs each. Eggs are often hidden in cracks, crevices, and dark areas.
- Unpleasant Odors - A musty, pungent smell often accompanies heavy infestations, caused by pheromones released by roaches.
- Live Roaches - Seeing live roaches during the day is a strong indication of a severe infestation, as these nocturnal pests typically hide during daylight hours.
