Cockroaches are pests that can infest homes, apartments, grocery stores, restaurants, and other places where food, water, warmth, and shelter are available. They carry harmful diseases and spread germs to food and household surfaces, which can lead to serious health problems. People can contract these diseases by touching contaminated surfaces or eating tainted food. Cockroaches are linked to asthma, salmonella, gastroenteritis, dysentery, and other stomach issues. These pests are nocturnal, hiding during the day and becoming active at night. 

Common types include German cockroaches, which hide in kitchens, American cockroaches, found in warm, humid areas like basements, and brown-banded cockroaches, often found in garbage or pipes. To prevent cockroaches, regular cleaning and maintenance are essential, removing their food, water, and hiding places. For safe and effective pest control, it’s best to hire a professional.
