Cockroaches are some of the sneakiest pests around. They are nocturnal, live in dark and moist spaces, and keep their eggs in cases (oothecae) that are hidden in secluded areas. Roach infestations can easily go unnoticed until it is too late and the group has slowly taken over the area in the home that they claimed for themselves.
This is exactly why it is crucial to be vigilant against these pests and keep an eye out for any evidence of a roach invasion. The most common ones include:
- A musty odor in certain areas
- Egg cases, or oothecae
- Droppings that look like black pepper
- Shed exoskeletons
- Chewed edges of objects, such as cardboard and wallpaper
- Any live or dead cockroaches
- Sudden allergy or asthma symptoms of people in the house
