Roaches
There are several things that will contribute to a roach problem too. Such as where you live. That is, if you live in a building with other people, such as apartments or high-rise buildings. Or houses that are attached to other houses, like duplexes or garden-style apartments or condos. This means that you have no control over what or who enters those other units, and if roaches are brought into another attached unit, there will be a definite danger that this problem will spread to other units. It will depend mostly on how the building was built, and how many people move in or out of those units during about a two-year span. If there is a high rate of turnover, there will be a greater danger of discovering roaches sometime. Roaches, at least the kind that are associated with man, the so-called german roaches, are vectored only by man. They need mankind to survive best, and are carried from place-to-place on our belongings, both alive and in egg form.
How do I get rid of cockroaches?
DON’T SPRAY! All of the commercial sprays contain a “flushing agent” which tends to flush roaches from their hiding spots. And while you may kill some of the roaches, there is a definite danger you will scatter the ones you DON’T kill to other areas. So if you do this inside your house, you may find that the roaches will pop up in other areas where they weren’t before. Also, don’t use those little bombs you can buy in the store. They are PURE flushing agent.
If you live in an apartment, the landlord is responsible for extermination procedures, so call him to arrange for the exterminator. Make sure it is a REAL exterminator – no maintenance men. Don’t get your own exterminator, his treatments may well counteract the efforts of the landlord’s exterminator. If you have several exterminators serving one contiguous building, control may be a long time coming. Ethical exterminators will refuse to treat for roaches in a building where they won’t have control access to all units. If you have one exterminator for all of the units, he will know what goes on in those other units, and can schedule treatments properly, and for the most effective results.
