Cockroaches
No matter the environment, be it residential or commercial property, we can prevent the presence of cockroaches.
The Harm of Cockroaches
Cockroaches are not the most sanitary insect, as they feed on garbage, breed in sewage drains, and often leave discharge all over your kitchen and bathrooms. Additionally, current research shows that asthma and other allergies can be aggravated by the presence of cockroaches. This is due to the fact that cockroaches produce a protein that may cause an allergic reaction in many people. Triggers to an allergic reaction can include their saliva, waste, skin shed, and even dead cockroaches.
American cockroaches are reddish brown in color, and can grow up to 2 inches in length. They are found in both residential and commercial buildings, especially places like restaurants, preparation areas, and basements. During summer months, they can be found outdoors in yards and alleys, often finding their way into garages. They enter structures through sewer systems, drains, or occasional mass migration from other structures (such as dumps) during shifts in weather.
The German cockroach* is one of the most prevalent roaches in the state of Texas. They are small, brown, and range in size from about an eighth of an inch to an inch in length. Since these cockroaches cannot survive severe cold weather, they mostly occur near human dwellings. Though they can be found in most buildings, they are particularly associated with restaurants, food processing facilities, hotels, and institutional establishments such as hospitals and nursing homes. The German cockroach reproduces faster than any other residential cockroach.

Oriental cockroaches are dark brown or black in color and have a glossy body. They range in size from 18-27 mm. Females have a wider body than males, and may appear wingless at first glance, but in fact, they have non-functional wings just below their heads. Males have long wings, which cover two-thirds of the abdomen. Despite the presence of wings, both females and males are flightless. The oriental cockroach lives in the lower regions of structures, such as basements, crawl spaces, and garages, where it is a bit cooler.
These cockroaches get their name from the brown bands that are present on the wings of adults and bodies of the young. They are one of the smallest invasive cockroaches, with lengths ranging from 11 to 14.5 mm. Brown banded cockroaches are found throughout structures but show a preference for warmer areas, especially those over 80 F. They find their way into ceilings, closets, and furniture, or just about anything that produces heat (such as appliance motors and light switches).
