Pests We Treat - Filthy kitchen is cockroach haven in South Amboy, NJ
Often, roach infestations are triggered by sanitation issues, and this unit was no exception. By any standard, this unit was poorly maintained. There were food-encrusted dirty dishes left in the sink and on the counters - for roaches, the equivalent of a continuously open all-you-can eat-buffet. 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.
