Taking care of cockroaches can be a big ordeal and stressful, Buddies Exterminating can resolve any cockroach problem. We've been doing it since 1962.
Cockroaches typically prefer to live in warm, humid environments, and during warm weather, they tend to breed frequently. Although they enjoy warm environments, these pests can generally survive at temperatures as low as 32 degrees Fahrenheit. When it is cold, the breeding cycle of this bug may be interrupted. In areas that become cold, cockroaches typically go indoors to remain warm. Environments with low humidity can also interrupt the breeding cycle of cockroaches.
Since roaches are scavengers, many of them come into contact with materials that may be contaminated with various bacteria or viruses. Cockroaches can carry bacteria in their guts or on their legs, and they can contaminate objects, such as utensils or food, that they touch. Cockroach casings and excrement can also be the cause of allergies in some people. Although these pests can bite, injuries from the bites are generally not serious. The bites can cause irritation and swelling though, and it is possible for the wounds to become infected.
Getting rid of roaches once they have entered a building can be extremely difficult, however, homeowners and building owners can learn how to rid their building of cockroaches by increasing their knowledge of how the pests operate. The following are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions about cockroaches.
A mixture of preventative and chemical measures is generally the best way to keep cockroaches under control. Preventative measures include checking incoming items for bugs, keeping buildings clean, covering up food items, and removing trash. Any leaky faucets or sources of moisture should be fixed, and crevices where cockroaches can hide should be sealed. Using insecticides to exterminate cockroaches can be challenging, and in most cases, it is much easier and a relatively good idea to just hire a professional exterminator to rid the pests.
Since high heat can effectively kill bugs, including the elusive roach, Las Vegas exterminating companies use heat treatment to kill the bugs.
When using a heat treatment, the exterminating company brings heavy-duty, industrial heaters to your home or business. You and your family or employees vacate the property during and just after the treatment. The pest control service turns off your air conditioning and plugs in the heaters. Turning these to an extremely hot temperature setting, they leave and let the heat do its job.
These heaters bring the temperature of your home or office to above 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Cockroaches absorb heat but even these resilient creatures cannot handle temperatures above 130 degrees Fahrenheit.
It requires a sustained 130 degrees Fahrenheit, but heat treatment kills both the existing roaches and their eggs. The most common way to use this treatment type involves the resident checking into a hotel overnight or scheduling the treatment to fall during their vacation.
The exterminators re-enter the home and remove the heaters. They re-activate the air conditioning, so you return to a comfortable home. The final step consists of spraying the home with an insecticide. The last step prevents new infestations. The heat treatment kills more than roaches, too. It kills off bed bugs and other crawling pests, too.
Cockroaches are resilient and resist extermination in Las Vegas. They are survival experts. The lifespan of a cockroach will vary based on its gender, species, diet, and environment where it lives. On average, German cockroaches can live for about 10 months after they hatch. Female American cockroaches can live for up to two years. A cockroach that has migrated to your home can live for a week without water and a month without food and survive underwater for 30 minutes. Surprisingly, cockroaches can survive without their head for weeks, continuing to respond to stimuli.
Cockroaches are not just a nuisance but can also pose serious health risks. At Buddies Exterminating, we ensure rapid and effective elimination of cockroach infestations with these proven strategies:
