Where can cockroaches come from?

The law of conservation of energy in nature says that nothing disappears anywhere and is not taken anywhere. With regard to insects, this law also works: in your home they appeared for a reason. Here are the main sources of the appearance of cockroaches:

1. Neighbors. This is one of the most probable ways. So imagine the situation: your neighbors for unknown reasons got cockroaches, they naturally noticed the "guests" and began to gradually destroy them or simply scare them away. Naturally, insects need to look for a new habitat and it is your apartment that can become this "new territory".Therefore, if you have cockroaches, then first contact your neighbors and discuss the situation with them. If the insects really creep towards you from neighbors, then you need to solve this problem together. Complex treatment from cockroaches, possibly with the help of SES specialists, is suitable here.
2. Products. Everyone knows that cockroaches live most often in the kitchen, where there are open foods that can be refreshed. And where is still full of unprotected food? Naturally in supermarkets and markets. You could safely buy some spoiled product, which is not the first day to feast on a cockroach, and even not one. Bringing this product home, you have already brought into your home a huge problem, which will be very difficult to solve.
3. Unsanitary conditions. This is not even a source, but the reason for the appearance of cockroaches. They can eat not only fresh and quality products, but also rotten, spoiled food. And this means that the waste garbage, spoiled food in your kitchen or three days ago, food in your pet's bowl, is a cry for cockroaches. Here, in the first place, it is necessary to establish one's own way of life, otherwise processing from cockroaches will be ineffective.

Important! One of the most important factors in maintaining the life of such an insect is water. Yes, a cockroach can live without food, light, heat, but not without water. Even the weakened, dying cockroach will "come to life" from a drop of water. Therefore, the cause of the appearance of cockroaches can be even a small puddle of water on the table or floor. The level of humidity in the apartment is also worth following.

3. Physical Stability. Surprisingly, such insects are very resistant to physical damage. If you saw a cockroach and the first thing that comes to hand - it's a sneaker, then just hit it will be pointless. It is necessary to smear the insect on the floor, I then remove it with a dry sponge. Otherwise, the cockroach can crawl to the water, a drop of which will heal it.

Folk methods of cockroach control

One of the characteristics of cockroaches is a terrible fear of boric acid, or rather a fear of what might happen as a result of its action. If from ordinary poison insects simply die, then from boric acid they begin to suffer terribly, and even if they do not die, they leave the territory with great speed.

Boric acid is no less effective than chemicals. So why waste a lot of money and spoil your health with chemicals, if you can just use boric acid.

Here are a few simple recipes that will help you to get rid of cockroaches once and for all:

• Here we will benefit from the attachment of cockroaches to the water. It is necessary to sprinkle with boric acid all the sources of water in your home( a sink, a toilet, a dishwasher, a trash can, a bathroom, etc.).To handle the entire apartment will take about 70 g of boric acid, but it all depends on the size and features of the territory.
• This time we will be helped by another feature of cockroaches - curiosity. Take 1 or 2 raw egg yolks and add in them 30-50 g of boric acid. From the resulting mixture we make small balls spread them in the kitchen, in the bathroom and toilet, these places can be limited. The most optimal places for poisonous balls are: shelves in cabinets, window sills, on which there are flowers and corners in the rooms. Curious cockroaches, seeing interesting balls of bright yellow color, the same hour will go to explore them. The only drawback of this method is that the result will not be instant, but in 3-4 weeks the daily cleaning of the corpses of cockroaches will go into your duties.
