Cockroach Control
Among the most ancient of all insects, the cockroach has always pestered mankind. It is a loathsome, repulsive despoiler of our food and spreader of filth and disease. It is prolific, tenacious and hard to kill.
There are many thousands of known species of cockroaches but the main pest varieties, which have adapted to infesting our homes, restaurants, shops, factories and offices, is limited to six species. These species enter our premises through doors, windows etc. and also in food cartons and packing cases which may contain eggs or adult cockroaches. They prefer the warmer areas in kitchens, around the hot water service, behind stoves, refrigerators, and dishwashers and in electric motors. At night they emerge to search for food and water. They are quite indiscriminate in their habits and enjoy feeding on garbage and sewage and then crawling over food, cooking utensils, plates etc.
Cockroaches are known to harbour a wide variety of disease organisms, which can cause urinary tract infections, boils, abscesses, intestine infections, gastroenteritis, food poisoning, and diarrhoea.
