Why are cockroaches pEsts?
Cockroaches cause problems
Cockroaches are the most common household pest in Utah. They leave an unpleasant odor, spread disease, contaminate food areas, and can cause skin allergies.
Cockroaches are quick colonizers
Roaches must be eradicated as soon as possible because they are prolific breeders. Once a colony of roaches has been established in the home, they will continue to spread until they are forced to leave, or are killed. Large numbers of roaches will live in a small area. The average roach infested household holds over 20,000 roaches. Roaches rarely come out of their hiding spots so if you can see them that means there is no room for them elsewhere. For every roach seen there are 200 more. Cockroaches can be a major issue when in apartment buildings because they can move from one unit to the next.
Cockroaches are persistent
Cockroaches are always on the lookout for a new hiding place to start a colony, and human homes make perfect refuges for cockroaches. Roaches will use plumbing or electrical lines to enter a home. Roaches can also be brought into homes from grocery bags, cardboards boxes when moving or to-go boxes from restaurants.
