We’ve provided Oriental Cockroach Control in Salt Lake for 7+ years and can say without a doubt, Salt Lake has an Oriental Cockroach issue. But where do they come from? How can you stop them?
Oriental Cockroaches are Large and dark in color. Typically 1” long
Oriental Cockroaches Dont’ “infest” indoors: Despite popular belief, Oriental Cockroaches are probably not coming through your drains (excluding floor drains in homes built pre 1980s.) Modern drains have “P” Traps that hold water, and so although it’s possible the occasional Oriental Cockroach could make their way through a modern drain system, it is unlikely (again excluding older floor drains.) What is MUCH MORE LIKELY is that you have an issue OUTSIDE, and they are somehow making their way in through a gap under a door, or cracks/gaps in your foundation.
The majority of Oriental Cockroach Control in Salt Lake City is Performed OUTSIDE.
“But I see them Inside”: As mentioned before, they can make their way indoors, but indoors is absolutely NOT a habitable enough environment for them to thrive and infest. It’s far too dry. If you find them lying on their back in your home/basement, this is why. They cannot thrive in normal indoor situations. They are coming from OUTSIDE through gaps, cracks, and crevices
Sealing under doors can be critical to stopping Orientals coming inside.
“Sealing Up the House:” Sealing under your doors, and sealing around any pipes or holes that lead into your home can stop Oriental Cockroaches from entering your home and can provide relief from seeing them in your home.
Long Term Control: Finding their nests and flushing them out is critical to Oriental Cockroach Control in Salt Lake. Their nests are any “dark wet cave” like areas including: Gaps/cracks in the concrete drive/walkway, gaps UNDER concrete where the ground has settled away, and within the gaps in tree root systems. At Bug Bully we Located these nests for you, and flush them out, ensuring they won’t come back for at LEAST 90 days.
