How to Know You Have a Roach Problem

There are several ways to tell if you have a roach problem. One sign is seeing the roaches themselves. They are usually about 1/2 inch long and are brown or black in color. Another sign is finding their droppings, which look like small, black pellets. If you notice an unusual amount of cockroaches or droppings in your home, it’s likely that you have a roach infestation and should call an exterminator right away.

Another way to tell if you have a roach problem is to check for their egg cases. Roach eggs cases are brown and look like a small purse. Although it’s difficult to find these cases, you might see them in the crevices of your floorboards or kitchen cabinets. If you do manage to spot one, there may be hundreds more that you can’t see and should definitely call an exterminator.

How to Solve a Roach Infestation

Roach extermination and control can be difficult, but it’s not impossible. The first step is to identify the type of roach you’re dealing with, as there are different strategies for exterminating each type. There are three main types of roaches:

• American cockroaches
• German cockroaches
• Oriental cockroaches

American cockroaches are the biggest and most common type, so they’re usually the easiest to exterminate. German cockroaches are small and fast, so they can be more difficult to get rid of. Oriental cockroaches live in water and tend to infest basements and crawl spaces.
