Cockroaches are some of the oldest and most resilient creatures on the planet. Their durability and adaptability allow them to live in a wide variety of climates; in fact, out of about 4,600 cockroach species, only about 30 are associated with human habitats.
A cockroach infestation can pose significant dangers to both your health and your home. They can carry and spread various diseases, including salmonella, E. coli, and various allergens that could trigger respiratory problems such as allergies and asthma. Cockroaches can also contaminate food and surfaces with their droppings, shed skin, and saliva; this can eventually lead to food poisoning and other illnesses.
Identifying the warning signs of a cockroach infestation is crucial if you want to take action as quickly as possible. The most common signs of a cockroach problem include the presence of live or dead cockroaches, their droppings (which resemble black pepper or coffee grounds), a musty odor, egg casings, and small brown stains on walls or surfaces throughout your home. Cockroaches are nocturnal creatures, so if you spot them during the day, it could mean that your problem is more substantial.
