Help!! How do I tell if I have a cockroach infestation!?!?
Question:Over about the last 3 days I have found 2 of what I think to be cockroaches. I am not 100 percent positive, but they look like them, especially with the nasty long antennae and the wierd shaped head. They kinda look like a German roach, but w/o the stripes and a little bit different color. Anyway, I tore my apartment apart looking for those suckers...I mean EVERYWHERE! All my closets, under the bathroom and kitchen sinks, my water heater closet, my food cabinets, but to no avail.
These bugs do not seem to act like roaches...they didn't run when I saw them, and one was sitting right by my ceiling light, just hanging there. Is there any other places that they may be hiding? If so, where?
Also, I live in an apartment complex (a series of 4 family units per building) on a second story. Is it possible that these suckers could have come from an apartment below or beside me?
Sanitation is not an issue...my apartment is fairly clean.
Answers:
If you see more then one roach, you have more, they live in the dark, if you turn on the light at night you will be able to see more of them. They multiply very fast. If it were me I'd get an exterminator or get over the counter super straight roach killer & do this even after you do not see any more. Roaches are very dirty & can cause many different illnesses, ask your Doctor. They can get into any area.
Tell your landload to come in an exterminate the apartment.or move out.
