Tips to Prevent a Roach Infestation
Maintain Cleanliness and Reduce Clutter: Cockroaches are attracted to food remnants, grease, and waste. Regularly clean your kitchen, including appliances and countertops, and vacuum your living spaces to eliminate crumbs and debris. Declutter your home to remove potential hiding spots for roaches, focusing on areas where paper, cardboard, or other materials accumulate.
Seal Entry Points: Inspect your home for cracks, crevices, and other openings where cockroaches can enter. Use caulk to seal gaps around windows, doors, pipes, and other utilities that lead outdoors. Repair or replace damaged window screens and door sweeps to make it harder for roaches to find a way inside.
Manage Moisture: Cockroaches need moisture to survive, so eliminating water sources can help prevent an infestation. Fix leaky faucets and pipes, use dehumidifiers in damp areas of your home, and ensure proper drainage outside your property. Avoid leaving water in sinks or buckets overnight, and regularly empty pet water dishes.
Professional Treatment
While it may seem easy to deal with roaches, one cannot deny that they come back quickly due to their rapid reproduction. Therefore, it is not ideal to run the risk of daily visits by roaches, as they, like termites, can be very destructive and hurt you financially. When you see even a few of them, kindly call us, and we will remove them permanently.
We specialize in offering minimally invasive treatments to control roach infestation. As a roach exterminator in New York, we help you keep your home clean by stopping its growth by using repellents. We also educate staff about retaining a sanitized environment to keep roaches away.
