Cockroach Control in Middlesex County

What Are Cockroaches?

Cockroaches are nocturnal insects that hide during the day. These pests are challenging to identify in small numbers because they are most active when we are sleeping. When infestations grow larger, or food becomes scarce, you are more likely to see them during the day. If you see cockroaches in your home, call Assurance Pest Solutions immediately.

Cockroaches are opportunistic scavengers and will find a way onto any property that offers them food, water, and shelter. Oval-shaped insects with long antennae, cockroaches are known for being poor fliers. The cockroach's only means of defense is their quick movements. Whenever cockroaches feel threatened, they use their six legs to scurry out of the way quickly.

The most common household-invading roaches living in Massachusetts and across the United States are German cockroaches, American cockroaches, Oriental cockroaches, and brown-banded cockroaches.

Cockroaches have existed for over 300 million years, exemplifying their adaptability and resilience. Despite their longevity on Earth, they remain one of the most unwelcome pests due to their association with unsanitary conditions and their potential to spread disease. Understanding their biology is crucial to controlling them effectively. Cockroaches can hold their breath for about 40 minutes and are known to survive without food for a month, which highlights their tenacity and the challenges in eliminating them without professional help.

Where Will I Find Cockroaches in Middlesex County?

Cockroaches forage for food in garbage piles, sewers, garden areas, pet food bowls, and any indoor space that prepares or stores food. Many roach species are also attracted to water, so properties with underlying water issues, like leaky pipes or fixtures or poor drainage, attract cockroaches. German, Oriental, and American cockroaches prefer to live in warm, damp areas near food. In our homes, populations of cockroaches develop in the backs of drawers and cabinets, in the cracks of walls near pipes, behind appliances, and in damp basements. The brown-banded cockroach differs slightly from most cockroaches because they prefer to live in warm, dry areas. Spaces behind wood trim, the tops of cabinets, and inside cabinets are places where people discover these roaches.

In addition to our pest control solutions, the following tips will help prevent cockroach problems:

  • Inspect Boxes & Items: Inspect boxes, plant pots, deliveries, and used items for cockroaches before bringing them into your home.
  • Repair Leaks: Immediately repair leaky pipes.
  • Check for Leaks: Inspect areas under sinks and behind refrigerators for leaks regularly.
  • Clean Thoroughly: Keep kitchen areas free of food debris by regularly sweeping floors and wiping down counters.
  • Proper Storage: Store dry goods in containers with airtight lids and fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator.
  • Declutter: Keep your home free of the clutter where cockroaches can hide, paying particular attention to basements, closets, pantries, cabinets, and drawers.
  • Seal Entry Points: Cockroaches move inside through any openings they discover. Regularly inspect your home's exterior and seal any openings you find using caulk or another sealant.

Maintaining a consistent cleaning schedule and being vigilant about potential cockroach entry points is essential in preventing infestations. Educating family members or employees about cockroach prevention can further support these efforts, creating a cooperative environment in safeguarding against pests. This approach not only minimizes the chances of future infestations but also helps promote a healthier and more comfortable living and working space.
