Let BUGCO® Pest Control’s Roach Control Experts Work for You

We’ll start by identifying the types of cockroaches you’re dealing with, and then we’ll work with you to develop an effective control plan that works with your budget.

Oriental Roach Control

So let’s start with the Oriental roach. Oriental roaches are a dark brown, almost black color of roach with long antenna. They’re about one or two inches in length. They love moist areas, and they’re most commonly introduced to the home with fresh mulch or in mulch beds.

Regular exterior pest control will get them under control. To note, Oriental roaches usually stay in and around the proximity of the mulch bed.

American Roach Control

Next would be the American cockroach. These are the most common roaches here in Houston. They’re also solid brown in color, about one or two inches in length. American roaches are excellent fliers and tend to be found in and around homes that have heavy foliage. So good landscaping and regular exterior pest control will greatly limit the possibility of an infestation in your home. To note, American roaches fly over a hundred feet from their nesting site.

Asian Roach Control

Misidentified but No Less Pestilent

The Asian cockroach, while smaller than its American and Oriental counterparts, can often be mistaken for the German roach due to its brown Mohawk stripe and flying abilities. Found in areas with heavy foliage, effective exterior pest control, and yard treatments can help control their population and limit interior sightings. However, it’s important to note that Asian cockroaches have been known to swarm in the hundreds and travel great distances from their nesting site, driven by the wind.

Preventing Infestations

All three species of roaches – Asian, Oriental, and American – are attracted to the temperature difference between the inside of homes and the outside environment, as well as sources of water. To prevent infestations, it’s crucial to seal any gaps around doors and windows where these pests may enter. Regular inspections and maintenance can also help deter these pests from taking up residence in your home.
