Dallas Roach Control
A Kitchen's Worst Enemy
Having a roach infestation can be very unpleasant and frustrating. Roaches can contaminate food, appear unexpectedly, and transmit bacterial infections to humans. When there are a lot of roaches in one place, you may be able to smell them. In short, roaches are gross, which is why it’s essential to hire a Dallas roach control company to get rid of them.
Because they reproduce quickly and are experts at hiding away in nooks and crannies, tracking them down and eliminating them can be a real challenge. They also come in different varieties that require different tactics. The good news is, BUGCO® Pest Control has years of experience in locating, identifying, and exterminating cockroaches in Dallas homes and businesses.

Telling Cockroaches Apart
There are few worse feelings than seeing cockroaches scurry across your floor. Even worse, where there is one roach, there are certainly more to come. When they dig their way into your home, they will create a nest and stay in your home as long as they can. Identifying the specific type of cockroach is crucial to effectively tackling an infestation. Each species has unique behaviors and preferred habitats, which dictates the most efficient removal method.
The Oriental roach is only an inch or two in length and usually lives in or near a mulch bed. They’re dark brown, almost black, and are easy to get under control with regular pest control. Understanding their moisture preferences and habitat choices can aid in pinpointing their favorite hiding spots and deter them by keeping these areas dry and free from organic debris.
Asian, Oriental, & American Roach Control
The most common roach in Dallas is the American roach. They are brown, about an inch or two long, and fly a lot – more than 100 feet from their nest. They usually live near heavy foliage, so you can prevent them with good landscaping and regular pest control. Effective barriers include trimming tree branches and ensuring that any leaves and woodpiles are kept away from home foundations.
There is also the Asian roach, which is much smaller – only one or two centimeters long. They also fly and live in heavy foliage but often swarm in packs of hundreds. They’re attracted to water and to the temperature difference between your home and the outdoors. Keeping doors and windows properly sealed can greatly reduce their entry points.
German Roach Treatment
The last kind of roach that you’ll see in Dallas is the German roach. They are the worst kind of roach, the most difficult to get rid of. German roaches are particularly resilient, often requiring a comprehensive approach that includes professional treatment along with rigorous sanitation efforts by the homeowner.
They will nest near a water source such as your sink or dishwasher and reproduce quickly. A single female can have 10,000 descendants in a single year. They can spread diseases and lead to respiratory infections in children. Ensuring that food particles are cleaned up and leaks are fixed can prevent them from thriving.
Tips for Preventing Future Infestations
To help you avoid repeat roach problems, our experts recommend the following:
- Seal cracks and crevices: Roaches can enter through even the smallest openings. Use caulk or weather-stripping to seal doors, windows, and baseboards.
- Fix leaks and eliminate moisture: Roaches are attracted to water sources like leaking pipes and standing water. Keep sinks and dishwashers dry overnight.
- Store food properly: Use sealed containers for dry goods and pet food. Wipe down kitchen surfaces daily to remove crumbs and grease.
- Empty trash regularly: Take out the trash frequently and keep outdoor bins covered and away from home entry points.
- Keep landscaping in check: Trim shrubs, trees, and remove yard debris to limit roach habitats around your home’s perimeter.
Preventative action, combined with professional maintenance from our Dallas pest control experts, offers the best protection against roach infestations.
