Why Roach Removal?

They may look innocent, but roaches are anything but harmless. Everywhere a roach travels it leaves behind a trail of feces and saliva. This helps it track where it is in your home and find its way back again in case of danger. For people with asthma, this can be life-threatening. Without roach removal , roach leavings can trigger acute asthma attacks in sufferers. These allergies are especially prevalent in children. When left around cockroach allergens long enough, young children with no previous asthma symptoms can even develop asthma. All because of a roach problem that could have been treated by Family Home Pest Control.

Roaches are also microbe transporters. They may be immune to the effects of the microbes they carry, but humans aren’t. Cockroaches are linked to 33 strains. These include E. coli and Salmonella as well as parasitic worms. Roaches are often attracted to fruits and other items left out. You may have no idea where they have walked, and it is very easy for a roach to spread pathogens to food items left out. One forgotten washing and you or your family members could be exposed to some life-threatening danger. There is something you can do though.

  • How do you prevent pests?
    Pest prevention depends on what you’re trying to prevent. Some best practices we always advise customers to follow are to keep all food items (including those for pets) in air-tight containers. Make sure there are no leaks in your home (including the attic and basement). Mechanical exclusion involves sealing off all entry points into the home. This is difficult for homeowners to accomplish without help, but you can keep your lawn and surrounding areas clean and free of debris. If there are any trees or bushes that provide roof access for pests, move these away from the home or trim them shorter than the roof line.
  • How do you control pests?
    Our exterminators use the right method for the job. We take into account the property, pest type,
    and residents of the home. Certain methods aren’t used when small animals or children are present. We always target our efforts as well. That means identifying paths your pest uses, where they are present, and using their feeding areas and times against them to achieve the fastest and most complete results.
  • How is pest control done?

    There are three types of pest control procedures:

    • Biological pest control: This uses chemical agents and may involve baits, pheromones, sprays, and repellants.
    • Physical pest control: Exterminators manually remove pests and use control methods like barriers, sealants, and environmental manipulation to control pests.
    • Mechanical pest control: Mechanical devices include traps, bait stations, and other devices designed to prey on the behavior of a specific pest.
