How to control indoor and outdoor Cockroaches safely?

 

Cockroaches are among the most common insect pests that are generally found in homes, businesses, and schools. They create trouble for us as wherever food is prepared or served they will be found there only as they like to eat many of the same foods we do. They may also transfer disease-causing organisms.

It is easy to control these cockroaches by having little knowledge about their biology and behavior. Proper attention to sanitation and effective use of commercially available insecticides may also help us to get rid of these cockroaches. Many people prefer Cockroach control treatment in Dubai to get rid of these problems.

Cockroaches have basically a three-stage life cycle: egg, nymph, and adult. At a time mature females produce 12 to 36 eggs which mostly depends on the species. A bean-shaped capsule or ootheca protects these eggs. The number of oothecae that female cockroaches produce totally depends on the species. Until the egg is mature, the female cockroach carries the egg capsule. She finds a secluded spot to drop it on the surface. After hatching, those nymphs tend to stay in dark, protected cracks and crevices, which they often share with adult cockroaches.

Mentioning below the different ways to control indoor cockroaches:

• Vacuums:  To remove indoor cockroaches and their food sources Vacuum cleaners are useful. They are sometimes under stoves and behind refrigerators. A vacuum cleaner also helps remove crumbs and other food that cockroaches depend on in the process of removing cockroaches. The vacuum which we are using must have a HEPA filter that can filter out the finest dust particles as cockroaches often contain allergens that may cause asthma or make breathing difficult for some people.

• Baits: At homes Baits are considered among the most effective insecticides for controlling cockroaches. Food is mixed with an insecticide and Cockroaches feed on the bait and return to their hiding places to die in this process. As in this process when few food alternatives are available baits are the most effective solution to remove cockroaches from our homes. These bait stations can be placed near garbage cans, under sinks, along near cracks, cabinet edges, in corners, or under dishwashers, refrigerators, or stoves to remove these indoor cockroaches.

• Dust: Sometimes the insecticides are sold in dust form so that they can be applied into wall voids which are difficult to treat with other forms of insecticides. During contact in dark areas dust also can be transferred easily from one treated insect to another. Effective dust for cockroach control includes some plant-based insecticides and boric acid which is one of the more effective cockroach control insecticides when it is used properly.

• Sprays: Sprays are also another method to get control of these cockroaches but they are not nearly as effective as baits.

   Different Ways to Control Outdoor Cockroaches:

• American, oriental, and smoky brown cockroaches are those outdoors found cockroaches that are found in nonfood areas of homes and commercial buildings.
•  They actually become pests when they enter a home or business
• . If we are unsure about where these cockroaches are getting in sticky card monitors can be used.
•  These cockroaches look for dark, moist areas outdoors close to decaying organic food sources.
• In outdoor areas, these Cockroaches can live in compost piles, ground cover plants, hollow trees, mulch, old stumps, palm fronds, woodpiles, sewer manholes, and underground water meters.
• Mostly American and oriental cockroaches use floor drains as common points of entry into buildings.
•  To minimize the risk of cockroaches getting in it is important to keep P-traps filled with water to create a barrier between the sewer and the home or business.
