Cockroaches are one of the most resilient pests, capable of thriving in both clean and unsanitary environments. They are nocturnal feeders, so seeing one during the day often indicates a larger, hidden infestation. These pests are more than just an unsightly nuisance; they pose serious health risks and can cause property damage. Cockroaches contaminate food and surfaces with harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli, and their droppings and shed skins can trigger allergies and asthma. They also emit a musty odor and can damage paper, fabrics, and even electrical appliances.
Cockroaches are recognizable by their flat, oval-shaped bodies, long antennae, and quick movements. They vary in size and color, but all share a knack for hiding in dark, secluded areas.
These are small, fast, and often found in kitchens and bathrooms. They reproduce rapidly and can lead to a large infestation in a short amount of time.
Much larger than the German cockroach, they are reddish-brown and are often found in basements, sewers, and around plumbing fixtures.
Cockroaches can range from light brown to reddish-brown or even black, and they may have wings, though they rarely fly.
Cockroach infestations can be extremely difficult to eliminate without professional help due to their resilience and ability to hide in inaccessible areas.

Cockroaches leave behind egg casings, known as oothecae. These are small, brown, capsule-shaped shells that can be found in secluded areas like behind appliances, in pantries, and under furniture.
Since cockroaches are nocturnal, seeing them during the day is often a sign of a severe infestation. They typically scatter when lights are turned on.
