Nothing gives you a case of the “creepy-crawlies” like suspecting that you might have a cockroach infestation. With the warmer weather approaching, all kinds of pests are going to begin making an appearance after a long winter. Cockroaches are just one type of household pest that you might have to deal with this year. Most of the time you don’t realize you have a cockroach infestation until you’re walking through you’re kitchen in the middle of the night, and you see a few of them on your counter.
Here are a few signs you can look for to help you identify whether or not you might have a cockroach infestation.
Cockroach Droppings
Cockroach droppings look a lot like coffee grounds, so if you see them on your countertops or floors, it’s possible that you have a cockroach infestation.
Seeing a Cockroach in the Daytime
Most of the time, cockroaches are visible only at night, so if you see one during the daytime, you can be pretty sure you have an infestation that needs the attention of a NJ pest control expert.
A Strong, Musty Odor
Some species of cockroaches emit different odors. If your infestation is a serious one, you may find that you begin smelling a very strong, musty smell in your kitchen, or wherever cockroaches might be present.
If you think you might have a cockroach infestation, it’s important to contact a NJ pest control specialist as soon as possible to help you control the problem, and restore your peace of mind. For more information, contact us today!
