Pests We Treat - Garbage build up attracts cockroaches in South Amboy

In addition, the roaches had virtually unlimited harborage areas from all of the clutter left in the kitchen and living room. I recommended to the tenant that if he didn't want any more roaches, he needed to keep things clean by removing food sources and by keeping trash build-up and clutter to a minimum. I used my sprayer to apply a product to flush these insects out of their hiding places and kill them. I'm confident that my treatment effectively killed any active roach activity. However, to prevent future roach infestations, the tenant must improve his sanitation. If you live in a home or apartment and do not keep up with your kitchen and you have clutter that offers unlimited harborage areas, you are virtually guaranteed that a roach or other insect infestation problem will develop. Property managers must be vigilant about educating tenants about proper sanitation in order to keep these infestations to a minimum and to preserve the reputation of the apartment complex.
