In addition to being one of the most dreaded household pests, cockroaches are also one of the hardest pests to eliminate.

Roaches can adapt to a variety of environments, however, they typically prefer warm conditions found within homes and businesses. This makes it imperative to work with professional cockroach exterminators quickly if you see them in your home or business.

There are over 4,000 different species of cockroaches, but just 30 are considered pests. Of those 30, the following four varieties cause the most problems in homes and businesses in the United States.
The four main species are the American, German, Asian, and Oriental cockroaches. These vary in size from about 1/2″ (German), up to 2″ (American). In the U.S., the German cockroach is the most common species in homes and multi-unit residential buildings. No matter what type of cockroach you have on your property, it’s important to get professional roach exterminator help to treat an infestation.
Cockroach Removal in the Home
Once cockroaches infest a home, they are rarely seen. Cockroaches are nocturnal and also tend to hide during daylight hours. Roaches can live up to a month with little or no food, and can survive by eating book bindings, furniture glue, soap, dead insects, shoe linings, and more.
The presence of cockroaches in your home is offensive and can imply uncleanliness, especially if your guests see them. A cockroach exterminator knows that uncleanliness alone will not produce a cockroach infestation, however, not keeping your home clean can make roaches more difficult to eliminate. The presence of cockroaches can also lead to health problems, including asthma in children.
