There are three common kinds of cockroaches that you might find in or around your Plano home; American cockroaches, German cockroaches, and oriental cockroaches. The American roach is large, reddish brown, and has a pale yellow figure eight pattern behind its head. The German cockroach is small, tan to light brown, and has two dark parallel lines behind its head. Finally, the oriental cockroach is medium-sized and jet black. Identify these pests inside your home by looking for these common signs of cockroaches:
To avoid a potential run-in with a scary cockroach, let our team inspect your home for you. Fast and effective pest identification is just one service we offer at All-Safe Pest & Termite.
A cockroach will not crawl onto your skin to bite you. These pests actively avoid human interaction. This does not, however, make them harmless. Cockroaches are nature's trash cans. They eat nasty things, live in nasty environments, and spread nasty diseases to humans. Some common diseases spread by cockroaches are salmonellosis, typhoid fever, dysentery, and campylobacteriosis. You might contract one of these harmful sicknesses by interacting with a contaminated surface or by eating food that is tainted. If your home has an active infestation, clean frequently and make sure all of your food is stored in air-tight containers, out of reach of roaches.
There are many reasons why cockroaches are among the most difficult pests to eliminate. Let’s start with their resilience to traditional pesticides. These invasive insects are able to withstand radiation, many harmful chemicals, and pressure up to 900 times their own body weight. They are also incredibly fast on their feet. The smallest roach in our area, the German cockroach, is able to move at a whopping 3 miles per hour and doesn’t break pace when transitioning from floors to walls to ceilings. They use this speed to quickly avoid danger and get into secluded, safe locations inside walls, ceilings, and storage areas. To make sure you handle these pests effectively, professional help is the way to go.
We do not want you to live with cockroaches. If we could, we would service every home in our area to protect everyone from these harmful pests. To help you with an active infestation indoors, let us schedule an appointment for you. We will send a technician your way to evaluate your home and utilize advanced treatments to remove active pest problems. If you want long-term services to prevent cockroaches and other common pests in our area, we have plans for this.
