ROACHES

Cockroaches have earned a poor reputation for entering our homes, transmitting diseases, and sneaking into our nightmares. Although they appear to be all awful, they are beneficial to the environment. They consume spoiled organic matter, which supports the natural process of decomposition. Cockroaches play a crucial role in the nitrogen cycle, supporting the health of forests. That said, nothing can make you feel uneasy in your home, like switching on the light in your bathroom and seeing them race away.

What’s worse still is imagining them crawling all over your kitchen. Here are some of the most well-known roaches that you may encounter:

American Roaches, at times called Palmetto Bugs – American cockroaches are one of the largest known species of cockroach. In the southeast, they are commonly called palmetto bugs. However, this is inaccurate as palmetto bugs are another species called the Florida woods cockroach, which has a different appearance, usually lives outdoors, and ejects a foul odor when spooked, whereas the American roaches do not.
Brown Banded Roaches – Brown-banded cockroaches are a variation of cockroach with the scientific name Supella longipalpa. Although quite small, they have various habits that cause them more disturbing than other species.
German Roaches – German cockroaches, despite their name, they are suspected of having emerged from Southeast Asia, but this is uncertain. They are the most known species of roach to invade homes, businesses, and other places. Although they are naturally acclimated to endure in tropical and warm surroundings, they like being indoors.
Oriental Roaches – Oriental roaches are acknowledged as one of the foulest cockroaches on the planet due to their affiliation with filth. Oriental cockroaches are well known for their preference for waste. They feed on garbage, decomposing substances, and trash in general.
Smoky Brown Cockroach – Smoky Brown Cockroach are some of the most resilient creatures and can prosper in just about any environment, including your home. They are nightly insects and are capable of hiding in tiniest crevices.

Our yard used to have cockroaches and spiders everywhere! Now we never see either. I love how responsive they are too. I needed my garage sprayed before doing a deep clean (it’s a mess!) and they came out promptly and sprayed it. Carson was friendly and professional. Every employee who has come has been amazing. Highly recommend!
