Cockroaches are one of the most dreaded pests for any homeowner. Fast, filthy, and hard to eliminate, roaches pose real health risks. At Delhi Pest Control, we’re experts in cockroach control for both homes and commercial properties throughout Cincinnati.
Why Roaches Are a Big Problem in Cincinnati
Warm summers and older buildings create ideal conditions for cockroaches in our area.
Why They’re Dangerous:
- Trigger allergies and asthma, especially in children.
- Carry bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella.
- Multiply quickly and hide in hard-to-reach places.
Signs of a Roach Problem
Look for these indicators, especially at night:
- Brown or black droppings that resemble pepper flakes.
- Musty or oily odor in infested areas.
- Egg cases (oothecae) behind appliances or in cabinets.
- Live or dead roaches, especially in kitchens or bathrooms.
Why DIY Roach Control Often Fails
Roaches are resistant, adaptable, and hide well.
Here’s why:
- Over-the-counter sprays scatter them rather than eliminate them.
- Roaches can survive on minimal food and moisture.
- They lay eggs in protected areas that DIY methods often miss.
