What are Cockroaches?

Cockroaches have inhabited earth for over 300 million years and are generally associated with uncleanliness and poor maintenance of homes and businesses. In truth, they can infest any building no matter how clean it is. Once they enter a facility, it can be difficult to get rid of these pests without the assistance from the New Jersey cockroach pest control experts at Viking Pest.

Cockroaches tend to hide in walls and small spaces and are attracted to almost any food source.

How to Identify Cockroaches

The NJ pest control experts at Viking Pest explain cockroaches found in New Jersey include the American cockroach, brown-banded cockroach German cockroach, and the Oriental cockroach. American and German cockroaches are oval-shaped, reddish-brown, have thin legs, and can grow to about 5/8 of an inch long. American cockroaches are the bigger pest of the species. They can grow to an inch and a half or longer explains a Viking Pest certified entomologist.

Smaller brown-banded cockroaches are aptly named because they have light brown bands across their wings and abdomen and grow to just over half an inch. The NJ pest control experts at Viking Pest explain these cockroaches prefer the warmer areas of your NJ home or business. The oriental cockroach, also known as the waterbug, is small, dark and smooth, attracted to damp areas, and about an inch in length.

What Problems Can Cockroaches Cause for New Jersey Home and Business Owners?

Cockroaches don’t bite people, but they can pose a serious health risk to your New Jersey home or business. Cockroaches spread diseases such as dysentery, e.coli, salmonella, and staph infections by leaving droppings on surfaces or food and by walking on things. The skin and droppings can become airborne, which can cause breathing problems for those with allergies or asthma.

When are Cockroaches Active in New Jersey?

New Jersey cockroaches are active all year long. The local New Jersey cockroach exterminators at Viking Pest state that cockroaches are most active in the spring and summer months when they come out mostly at night. During the fall and winter, many outdoor cockroaches will seek the warmth of your NJ home or business to overwinter.

How to Prevent Cockroaches in New Jersey

Prevention is the best way to control cockroaches in New Jersey. The NJ pest control experts at Viking Pest recommend making sure food preparation areas are clean, picking up leftover food, keeping trash in tightly closed containers, and cleaning often. If possible, make sure you have a tight seal around places cockroaches might enter your home or business, such as doors and windows.
