Roaches are terrible roommates.
A cockroach sighting is enough to make anyone uncomfortable. Getting the right help starts with identifying the type of roach, where it's coming from, and what may be keeping it around.
What homeowners usually notice
- 01
Late-night sightings
Roaches scattering when you flip on the kitchen or bathroom light.
- 02
Droppings
Small dark specks in cabinets, drawers, or behind appliances.
- 03
Near drains and moisture
Activity around sinks, floor drains, and water heaters.
Why roaches move in
Moisture
Kitchens, bathrooms, and drains offer the water roaches rely on.
Food and clutter
Crumbs, grease, cardboard, and stored paper give roaches food and hiding spots.
Entry points
Gaps around pipes, doors, and vents, plus items carried in from outside.
Species matters. Small German cockroaches usually live and breed indoors, while larger species often wander in from outside. They behave differently, so they aren't handled the same way, and plans vary based on the species and conditions we find.
Less guessing. More getting to the source.
