Cockroaches

Cockroaches, while not as common in the Pacific Northwest as in more tropical places, are still found quite frequently here. The most prevalent species, the German cockroach, can be found worldwide, and accounts for 95% of infestations in our area. Wherever there are people, German cockroaches follow, being inadvertently transported from place to place in things we carry. This even includes personal belongings, and groceries, which often give German cockroaches access to commercial properties.

Types of Cockroaches include:

• American Cockroaches
• Brown-Banded Cockroaches
• German Cockroaches
• Oriental Cockroaches
• Wood Cockroaches

The fact that cockroaches — and other bugs — can hide away like that is why professional pest control services are important.
