Cockroach Control

Here are some tips for controlling cockroaches in your home:

Identify the type of cockroach – Various species of cockroaches demand specific control approaches. The prevalent ones in Oklahoma include the German Cockroach, the Brown Banded Cockroach, and the American Cockroach.

Eliminate food and water sources – Eliminate potential food and water sources from your surroundings – Cockroaches rely on food and water for their survival. Hence, maintaining a clean and dry environment is crucial to avoid infestations. Store food in sealed containers, promptly clean up spills and crumbs, repair any leaks, and eliminate any stagnant water sources.

Utilize baits, traps, and other commercial products – Commercial baits, traps, and other products can effectively reduce cockroach populations. Strategically place them in common hiding spots for cockroaches, like under sinks, behind appliances, and inside cabinets to maximize their impact.

Apply insecticides – as a final solution for severe infestations by following label instructions cautiously. Refrain from spraying insecticides close to food, children, and pets to ensure safety.

Seal entry points – Cockroaches may find their way into your living space through tiny openings in walls, floors, and doors. Prevent these pesky creatures from entering your home by effectively sealing off these entry points using caulk or weatherstripping.
