Cockroaches are one of the worst bugs that one can have when we talk about insects in the apartment. They can wring their way through the tiniest and narrow crevices, holes, and gaps that are found in older buildings often found in older neighbourhoods. This is due to their exoskeleton which allows them to flatten their body to get through millimetres of space. The thing that you have to know about cockroach infestations is that cockroach infestations usually start out from the bottom. Not until the cockroach infestation progresses that infestation moves upwards in the higher floors of the complex.

There are multiple ways to get rid of cockroaches and that involves the time to be organized and squeaky clean. Cockroaches are attracted to the opposite environments that humans are typically attracted to. Humans like to be in organized spaces whereas the cockroach thrives in cluttered areas where it can thrive to its fullest extent. If you have clutter, it makes it easier for cockroaches to move around and find spaces for what the human eye can see and making it their main nesting area. Another way that the cockroach often moves in is that the cockroach also often moves in through boxes and infested furniture. Not to mention infested luggage too
The number one spot where you where encounter cockroaches is the kitchen. This is because the kitchen has everything that a cockroach is looking for. These three things are water, food, and grease. This is also the reason why you can meet them in the dishwasher, in the skink, and behind and under electrical appliances. Another strange spots where you might see cockroaches is an electrical outlet. This is because cockroaches love the warmth.
So you probably wonder how to get rid of cockroaches in an apartment. The answer is to remove food and water sources. In other words, make sure that spills and crumbs are wiped off or picked up. Cockroaches can do a lot with little and that is certainly the case with tiny crumbs or a little bit of a water spill. When cockroaches are deprived of their water and food source, there is no reason to stay and this keeps cockroaches away.
This alone won’t get rid of the cockroach problem because there are a lot of cockroaches that do not see the light of day. These cockroaches are where the real issue lies and where most of the cockroaches are part of the infestation. These cockroaches are behind areas that we call deep harborage areas and these are inaccessible to most homeowners. Only a licensed technician has access to these spaces with the help of power tools and commercial-grade pesticides.
