Oriental Cockroaches

25 Mar Oriental Cockroaches

Indoors, Oriental cockroaches prefer dark, moist areas such as under porches, crawl spaces, basements and floor drains. Because Oriental cockroaches often move into dwellings in large numbers, a perimeter or barrier treatment is recommended when cockroaches are found living outside. Oriental cockroaches, also known as water bugs, are usually not found on walls or cupboards since they are more more sluggish than their American counterparts. Oriental cockroaches are also more likely to travel through sewer or other waste pipes, making them very good at spreading filth. It is important to know what type of cockroach you are dealing with to make sure you get the right treatment.
