Cockroaches<\/a> have been on the earth for over 350 million years report Monmouth County, NJ pest control<\/a> professionals.\u00a0 They are the ultimate insect survivors.\u00a0\u00a0These pesky insects have learned how to adapt to all types of conditions that have been placed before them.\u00a0 Homeowners are discovering that cockroaches are resistant to many store bought pesticides.\u00a0 Many pesticides may kill a cockroach on contact, but have little residual effect on the pests.<\/p>\n

Besides being extremely resilient in all types of environments, they are hardy creatures.\u00a0 Cockroaches<\/a> are fast runners that are able to run over twelve feet in only one second which makes them extremely difficult to kill on contact.\u00a0All cockroaches have adapted their diets so that they are able to eat almost anything.\u00a0 The lack of organic or human food is not a problem for a population of cockroaches.\u00a0 These home invaders will gladly turn to nibbling away on paper, glue, soap, toothpaste, hair, feces, or cigarette butts.\u00a0 In their endless hunt for food, hungry cockroaches will even turn on each other and consume weaker or smaller cockroaches.<\/p>\n

Adult cockroaches can squeeze into spaces as thin as nickel.\u00a0 Smaller cockroaches can take on even smaller cracks, crevices, and holes to gain entry into a structure.\u00a0 Cockroaches constantly clean their legs, body and antenna, but they are not considered to be clean insects because of the filth that they travel through and consume.\u00a0 They are known to spread bacteria and disease and can cause serious allergic reactions for those who are sensitive to their saliva and fecal matter.<\/p>\n

Cockroach eradication requires the help of a licensed pest control professional for complete elimination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
