We’re not alone when we say we hate cockroaches. And we mean we hate them. Ask your neighbors and friends which pests they hate the most and the answer is usually always the same: cockroaches. They are small enough to get into virtually any location — closets, cabinets, drawers, even inside of your shoes.

And just like other pests, not having Slug-A-Bug is like having an open house and inviting them in. Roaches will come in and out as they please and the longer the problem goes untreated, the more there will be. Read on to find out how to eliminate cockroaches for good!

In terms of prevention, there are basic steps you can take such as cleaning up spills and crumbs. It’s important to either store or throw away food as soon as you’re finished. Additionally taking out the trash regularly and keeping the outside of your home — garbage can and all — as clean and sanitary as possible.

When it comes to cockroach control, many homeowners have tried to do it themselves. Some store bought products can lure them out from wherever they may be (inside the walls, in the trash, underneath, etc…) and ultimately displace them.

That means that there could be dozens, hundreds, if not thousands of wandering roaches all over your home. Katsaridaphobia, or the fear of roaches, is a real phobia shared by many people in Florida, and for good reason. Imagine having to live in a house full of cockroaches?

There’s also the possibility that store bought products won’t get all the cockroaches in the home — many roaches will avoid the products and stay alive. Just a few survivors can reproduce many more of these nasty pests in a short period of time. You need to get a professional cockroach removal service to take care of the problem.
