Roach Identifier FAQs

What Cockroaches Reproduce the Fastest?

German cockroaches are light brown and are well known for their rapid reproduction. They are can be commonly found in food preparation areas and can quickly become an issue. If you see a German cockroach be sure to exterminate them since they reproduce quickly.

How Do Cockroaches Get Inside?

Cockroaches can get into your home through cracks in walls, windows, doors, or any other small entranceway to your home. The best way to avoid these intruders is by looking for these cracks and sealing them as soon as possible. If you have cockroaches inside, we recommend placing baits or gels in areas where they can feed on them.

When Should You Hire an Exterminator?

While most of the time you can handle a minor cockroach infestation, for larger infestations it may be helpful to call in professional help. If you notice large numbers of cockroaches in rooms, then it may be time to call in for help. Baits and gels are helpful for dealing with them in tandem, but you may want to have them spray solutions outside your home as well.
