Are Cockroaches Dangerous?

Cockroaches are dangerous, though not in the sense that they will bite or attack. Rather, it's the diseases they carry with them and the damage they can cause to a property that is most threatening. Cockroaches carry with them diseases which cause diarrhea and food poisoning, which makes them especially threatening in kitchens and restaurants. They also secrete substances which leave stains and cause unpleasant odors. 

How do I get rid of cockroaches?

Cockroaches can be difficult to get rid of, especially given their ability to reproduce quickly, and lay 16-50 eggs with each gestation. In Sacramento, you will see an increase of cockroaches coming from the sewers as it heats up. Protect your home to prevent them from finding a nesting spot.

The best defense is prevention:

  • Watch for cockroaches and their eggs in moving boxes
  • Examine bags, boxes, and luggage before bringing them into the home 
  • Remove any unnecessary clutter - especially papers and cardboard
  • Caulk and seal cracks and crevices 
  • Seal spaces around pluming and electrical entry points in walls
  • Don't leave pet food out (this also attracts rats)
  • Repair leaky faucets and pipes quickly - they love moisture
