Frequently ASKED QUESTIONS
hOW CAN WE HELP?
What are the signs of a cockroach infestation?
What are the risks of a cockroach infestation?
Cockroaches can pose serious health and safety risks due to their ability to carry bacteria and spread germs. Some common illnesses that cockroaches can transmit include salmonellosis, gastroenteritis, and staph infections. These insects can also contaminate your food supply with their droppings, which contain a variety of dangerous pathogens that are hazardous to humans. Cockroaches can contaminate more than just your food; they can also spread bacteria and viruses throughout entire buildings.
Cockroaches can chew through electrical wiring, insulation materials, and cardboard boxes. In short, cockroaches are nasty pests that you should avoid at all costs.
What steps can I take to prevent cockroaches?
One of the best ways to prevent a cockroach infestation is to keep your home clean. Ensure that food is properly stored, dispose of food waste in the trash and not on the ground, vacuum regularly to remove any crumbs or dust, and clean your kitchen thoroughly after each meal. You can also take steps to seal entry points around pipes and vents that cockroaches will enter through.
Protect Your Property from roaches
Once your roach problem is gone, our job isn’t done just yet. Our services are all designed to keep roaches away from your property for good and always include preventative measures to stop them from coming back. We’ll install non-chemical roach monitors at key points around your property to alert you when these pests are back in your area. We’ll also establish a protective barrier around your perimeter to deter roaches from returning.
You Can Prevent Further Infestations By:
- Limit the amount of “roach food” by preventing the accumulation of garbage and dirty dishes
- Recycle cardboard and newspapers ASAP – roaches love to make their homes in these products
- Clear out clutter in your home to give roaches fewer places to hide
- Seal any cracks around windows, doors, and vents
- Get any plumbing issues that pop up fixed fast, before they can attract roaches
- Don’t leave food crumbs or pet treats lying around
- Keep our Knoxville roach control team on speed dial for any additional inspections or treatments you may need
