WHAT IS COCKROACH?
Cockroaches belong to the order Blattodea. Out of 4,600 species, about 30 are associated with human habitats. These resilient insects have existed for over 320 million years, surviving from Arctic cold to tropical heat, making them one of the most hardy pests on Earth.
PHYSICAL TRAITS & ORIGINS
Cockroaches are primitive insects with flattened, oval bodies and long, threadlike antennae. Their ancestors, known as "roachoids", emerged during the Carboniferous period.
- Mouthparts: Primitive chewing mouthparts for generalized feeding.
- Hardiness: Capable of thriving in diverse climates and environments.
- Coloration: Typically reddish-brown to brownish-black leathery exoskeletons.
DISEASE AND HEALTH IMPLICATIONS
The WHO recognizes cockroaches as "unhygienic scavengers." They transport bacteria that cause serious illnesses:
• Salmonella
• Staphylococcus
• Streptococcus
• Dysentery
• Cholera
• Typhoid Fever
Allergen Warning: Enzymes in their excrement and saliva are common triggers for asthma and allergic reactions, especially in children.
HOW TO PREVENT INFESTATIONS
To keep your home or business cockroach-free, follow these essential steps:
• Seal Entry Points: Close cracks in floors and walls.
• Eliminate Moisture: Fix leaky pipes and keep areas dry.
• Airtight Storage: Store all food in sealed containers.
• Maintain Cleanliness: Regular vacuuming and mopping.
• Clear Clutter: Remove hiding spots like old boxes.
• Professional Baiting: Use targeted traps and baits.
CONCLUSION
While some species are harmless, those in human settlements pose significant health risks. Prompt action and professional pest control are essential to manage infestations effectively.
