A cockroach can eat anything. It loves to stay in dirty and damp places where they can breed family and make it their habitats. Generally, they hide in cracks and fissure around your home and get a path to enter your house through vents, and drains. In Bangalore, you can find different varieties of cockroaches according to the weather condition. Besides this, they prefer to live in food storage areas, basement, sewers and warm places like kitchen and steam tunnels. The most disturbing things you can find after waking up in the morning is roaches’ droppings and shed skin. It leads to allergies and asthma attacks, especially in children. Cockroaches also carry serious illnesses like dysentery, salmonella, and gastroenteritis.

TechSquadTeam shares a few hints to keep the cockroaches away from your house.

Cover all the food sources

It is the most effective way to thwart cockroaches. Cover all the food sources, water and any dirty and damp place as a shelter for them to be your permanent guests. Always keep food sealed in airtight containers. Dump garbage on a daily basis. Keep cans, bottles, and plastics in recycling bins after rinsing.

Keep surfaces clean

Any place where you have your food or prepare dishes should be wiped down immediately and after every use. If you leave those areas including your gas stove unattended, then it may welcome those unwanted guests into your house. Always dust the old stack of newspapers and magazines, unused cardboard boxes and other cluttered items which are not in use for a longer time. If possible, throw all those useless, old things. Because this clutter invites cockroaches, spiders, ants, and many other insects which eventually damage other new assets.

Washing dishes immediately

In a busy home, it is a habit to leave the dirty dishes overnight. But, it is like an open invitation to cockroaches. At least keep the utensils rinsed or soak them in soapy water if you can’t wash it. Those leftover food particles work as a great attraction for cockroaches.

Always keep the moisture build-up area dry

If you have any area where moisture build-up happens, then allow more ventilation to that area to keep the place dry. Always seal any holes or cracks from both the inside and outside of the house. Look for the gaps and cracks in the walls, floors, cabinets, electrical cables and seal them properly to avoid cockroach entry.

Taking preventive measures

Check on the risk area where cockroaches find their way into the home through cracks, crevices, vents, etc. You need to seal them properly with sealant product. In addition, you need to seal behind electrical sockets, kitchen sinks, and bathroom cabinets to reduce their entrance.

Professional approach

Applying DIY methods may reduce count, but it doesn’t guarantee their full elimination. You can also use cockroach traps in your house. These traps allure roaches in and trap them with an adhesive.

However, without expert know-how, and advanced tools, it is impossible to control cockroach infestation. Sometimes, it can be a losing battle for you and then even breed at a faster rate than before. Once you notice a cockroach, do not postpone its treatment as it may lead to uncontrollable growth of their population and the approach can be next to difficult.
