Know When to Call a Professional
Cockroaches have been around for millions of years. There are countless types, including the American Cockroach, Oriental Cockroach, Pennsylvania Wood Cockroach, and German Cockroach. German Cockroaches, in particular, can be difficult to get rid of. They tend to bring with them bacteria that can cause a number of health problems, resulting in things like food poisoning, dysentery, and other problems. Particularly heavy infestations can even cause issues like respiratory infections.
