A Guide To New Jersey Cockroaches

Just because it is cold outside does not mean your home or business will be free of pests until the springtime. The environment in our climate-controlled buildings can allow insects to thrive even during the most adverse weather conditions outside. The experts at Alco NJ Pest Control have compiled a list of different cockroaches native to New Jersey that can give any homeowner fits this winter.

Cockroaches can be black, brown or reddish brown and usually have oval-shaped bodies supported by spindly legs and they are vectors of many diseases. Cockroaches carry bacteria and parasites that can cause serious sickness in humans and when one is sighted it spells a serious problem. There are three common species of cockroaches in New Jersey and thirty more rare species that can be regional. If a cockroach is seen during the daytime, this is a sign of a serious infestation of these normally-nocturnal insects.
  • The German Cockroach is the most common cockroach in the United States and is often found in humid environments such as kitchens and bathrooms.
  • The Oriental Cockroach is often found in basements in the wintertime as it seeks refuge from the cold. These insects are found in leaf litter and can be tracked inside.
  • American Cockroaches is mostly found in kitchens near available sources of food. This species is particularly aggressive and can be found foraging for food during the daytime.

If you see any cockroach in your home or business, you need a cockroach removal immediately. Only a professional can truly get rid of this problem and ensure it does not return, so you should turn to the unmatched pest control in NJ provided by Alco NJ Pest Control.
