What attracts cockroaches?

Cockroaches can be commonly found in homes and buildings where food and moisture are present. They are often drawn to food left out on counters, unwashed dishes, and crumbs on the floor. Moisture from leaky pipes or damp areas, such as wet bath mats or sinks, can also attract cockroaches. In addition to being a nuisance, they may act as a potential allergen source in some environments.

How to help reduce their presence:

One method of addressing cockroach issues is using gel baits. Gel-baiting involves applying a bait in areas where cockroaches typically hide, such as cracks, under sinks, around electrical appliances, and inside drawers. This approach requires no disruption to daily activities, has no lingering odor, and can be used in an eco-friendly and non-toxic manner. Regular application may help manage the situation effectively.
