Different species of cockroaches thrive in varying environments, which is why it’s essential to identify the specific species infesting your home. Here’s a breakdown of the most common types we handle:
- American Cockroach: Recognized as one of the largest species, American cockroaches are commonly found near food and water sources, such as kitchens and bathrooms. They are active at night, which makes them harder to spot during the day. This species is particularly notorious for spreading bacteria, making pest control a necessity.
- German Cockroach: One of the fastest-reproducing species, German cockroaches are small but dangerous. They are most frequently found in homes and restaurants due to their attraction to food and water. Their rapid reproduction rate makes early intervention crucial, as infestations can quickly get out of control.
- Brown-Banded Cockroach: Unlike other species, the brown-banded cockroach prefers warmer and drier areas, often found hiding in furniture or high places like walls and ceilings. This species is particularly resilient and can thrive in various environments, which is why a thorough pest control plan is essential.
These are just a few of the species we encounter. No matter the type of cockroach, our 24/7 cockroach pest control services and our pest control experts are equipped with the right tools and knowledge to eliminate them.
