We do enjoy the company of guests but certainly not the unsolicited pests. Due to the climatic conditions, improper drainage systems and unorganized garbage dumps in Bangalore, we are quite familiar with the cockroach menace essentially at homes and office spaces. Not only do these pests bring you social embarrassment but also silently contribute to the weakening health of yours. Cockroaches are carriers for heaps of bacteria and infectious agents that can lead to an array of diseases from diarrhea to food poisoning. They can virtually live by eating anything and contaminate open food by defecating on it and the digestive fluids from their mouth can cause several diseases like urinary tract infections, digestive problems and sepsis.
Some species of cockroaches have been found to bite humans causing wounds. Cockroaches can not only invade your home but also your body parts. There are several cases of cockroaches entering the ear and nose while sleeping. Cockroaches can also cause allergies as their saliva secretion and body parts contain hundreds of allergens that can trigger an undesirable reaction.
You may suffer from skin rashes, sneezing and watery eyes. Moreover, they can be the worst enemies of asthmatic people as incidence of asthma attack may increase if your house is infested with cockroaches. And people who are not asthmatic may develop cockroach asthma by inhaling cockroach allergens.
To succeed in keeping cockroaches under control, here are few things you ought to be aware of. Cockroaches can enter your home from the outside through cracks and crevices, vents, sewer and drain pipes. We even bring them in on products like grocery bags, boxes, purses, etc. Your home is an ideal breeding ground for certain pest species of cockroaches with plenty of food, warmth, water and nesting sites. Cockroaches reproduce quickly. For every one you see there can be many, many more hiding and multiplying behind and within your cupboards. Because cockroaches typically are nocturnal, if you have seen one, you probably haven’t seen them all. The few cockroaches you see by day could mean they were likely forced out by overcrowding; a possible sign of severe infestation.
Their eggs are naturally protected from many over-the-counter insecticides. Without special equipment, materials and know-how, cockroach control can be a lost battle.
Below are 7 ways to get rid of Cockroach
1. Regularly clean your house if you don’t want to see the infestation of these ugly creatures.
This will help you to understand the status of cockroach infestation.
2. Ensure that areas like the sink and the food preparation area is cleaned before you turn
3. Empty the dustbin in your kitchen regularly and always keep it covered. A pile of garbage is
an open invitation to cockroaches.
4. Don’t leave your food open at nights to prevent contamination. Preferably, store all food in
sealed containers. Clean your refrigerator regularly, at least once in a week.
5. Never keep old newspapers, books and magazines stacked openly.
6. Keeping cockroach sprays handy so that you can kill them instantly when you see them. This however, can work only temporarily.
7. Block all entrances from where you think cockroaches are gaining entry into your home. Seal tiny cracks and holes present in the walls to prevent cockroaches from making a permanent home over there.
Though the convenience of spray insecticides helps us to quickly lay down a defensive barrier against the invasive little pests, you should be aware of the dangers of inhaling or otherwise ingesting the chemicals in the spray. Accidentally inhaling the spray can cause irritation to the nose, throat and lungs. It can also affect the central nervous system in high doses. The harmful chemicals like cypermethrin and imiprothrin can cause shortness of breath, coughing, congestion, dizziness, an asthma attack and wheezing.
Now you can get non-toxic extermination done in Bangalore by pest control professionals at a regular basis for a pest-free household. Thereafter, good sanitation should be practiced to prevent further infestation.
