How did cockroaches get into your home?

Although many people think that cockroaches only live in dirty old apartments where no one cleans, that is not entirely true. If there is enough moisture, these unwanted visitors can easily move into clean spaces as well.

Where are cockroaches most commonly found?
Cockroaches prefer to live in places that are sufficiently warm and humid. At the same time, they look for spaces close to a food source, which is why their hiding places are often in the bathroom or directly in the kitchen. You will usually find them near radiators and other heat-producing appliances, by the stove, behind the refrigerator, or under the bathtub.
How can you tell if cockroaches are present?
- There is an unpleasant odor in the home.
- Droppings resembling ground coffee appear on the floor.
- You may find strange greasy traces.
- Shed skin remains may also be present in the apartment.
Cockroaches living in human homes are usually most active at night. If you pay attention, you may easily spot them in the evening under artificial light as they scurry across the floor or behind furniture. If you see these unwanted visitors even during the day, the level of infestation is probably alarming, and you should contact our experts immediately at +420 724 123 321!

Why are cockroaches dangerous?
Many people consider the presence of cockroaches in their home a major problem because they contaminate all nearby food and also produce an unpleasant odor. In reality, however, these crawling insects are also very dangerous. Cockroaches carry various bacteria, mites, and disease-causing germs such as typhoid or hepatitis.
Can cockroaches bite you?
Cockroaches are known for being omnivores capable of consuming almost anything edible. They eat not only plants, but also meat with great appetite. If there is any suitable food nearby, they will most likely not attack humans. In rare cases, an American cockroach, Australian cockroach, or German cockroach could bite a person, but if you call our professional pest control company in time, you have nothing to worry about.
