Omnivorous Appetites and Household Targets
Cockroaches will eat almost any organic matter no matter how rancid. Once inside the home, they will seek out food scraps, unsealed food containers, sugar and grease deposits, pet food, rancid meat, glue and even book bindings.
Nocturnal Habits and Stealthy Dwellings
Cockroaches rest during daylight hours in dark, warm and secure locations in your home, such as wall cavities, the sub floor, roof void, cracks and crevices in the kitchen and bathroom and within electrical appliances.
They will emerge from these locations in the still of the night. Cockroaches have an array of acute sensory and survival instincts. If you see cockroaches in your home during the day, you have a serious problem.
If left unchecked, a cockroach infestation can rapidly expand its’ numbers in a few weeks or months to become a major risk to health and safety.
