How Dangerous are
Cockroaches?
Each species of cockroach takes on a different appearance; several species have wings, but not all of them can fly. Their color tones range from brown to black. Cockroaches have six legs, antennae, and can grow to be as long as 2 inches. The German cockroach is the most popular cockroach found in residential and commercial buildings. They are covered in bacteria and transmit diseases that contaminate everything they touch. Many cockroaches scour for food in dumpsters, piles of garbage, drainpipes, sewers, and animal carcasses. They should be removed from your household as soon as possible to stop people and animals from getting sick.
Can I Treat Cockroaches Myself?
Although some chemicals you may purchase from stores claim they rid your home of moderate to severe Cockroach infestations, the truth is 99% of the time they don’t. The sprays have little to no residual life and the bait takes several feedings. If you can catch a roach infestation SUPER EARLY as in 5 or fewer roaches, then sure… but this is almost always not the case. Customers don’t typically realize they have a Cockroach issue until it’s too late. Drake Pest Management specializes in residential and commercial cockroach infestations. Our technicians are trained to assess, treat, and monitor each infestation. Drake Pest Management relies on the removal of current food sources through methodical cleaning and then baiting to provide a new deadly food source for the roach. Residual spraying of pesticides is less effective and used by Drake Pest Management in a few specific conditions.
