German Cockroach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

German cockroaches<\/a> are among the most common pests in New Jersey. You\u2019ve probably seen these brown bugs running around near garbage cans outdoors, but they\u2019re often seen inside homes as well. Keep the following facts about these pests in mind, and don\u2019t hesitate to seek help from Monmouth County pest control experts if you see any in your home.<\/p>\n

Problems with Cockroach Infestations<\/strong><\/p>\n

German cockroaches<\/a> can crawl inside your food supplies, contaminating them and forcing you to throw them away. These pests can also spread disease, including parasitic worms, due to their habit of moving through raw sewage and other germ-infested sites. When they pick up these bacteria and other germs on their bodies, they can pass them onto your kitchen counters and other surfaces. Cockroaches can also make asthma worse, especially in kids, and cause allergic reactions.<\/p>\n

Feeding Habits<\/strong><\/p>\n

German cockroaches<\/a> feed on a variety of items, ranging from regular human food to pet food and nonfood items, such as soap and toothpaste. You\u2019ll typically see them in your bathrooms and kitchen, where they roam around searching for food sources and water. They\u2019re able to get inside your home by squeezing through openings that are as tiny as 3\/8 inches wide.<\/p>\n
