Rocklin Cockroach Pest Control
One of the most unsettling things a homeowner can discover is that they have a cockroach infestation. Cockroaches are an unsanitary pest, common to the Rocklin and Placer County region. Roaches can cause damage to your health, especially children and those already facing health issues. Due to filth and poor hygiene, cockroaches carry a variety of pathogens and bacteria. They are known to pass on diseases such as Cholera, Dysentery, Giardia, Leprosy, Tuberculosis, Typhoid Fever, and more. For some people they even cause rashes, trigger allergies, and carry allergens that can trigger and develop asthma in children.
After feeding and damaging areas in your home, they stain walls, floors, baseboards, and furniture with their contaminated excrement.

Types of Cockroaches in Rocklin

- German Cockroach. About half an inch long, usually colored brown or black. They usually live indoors in small cracks or hidden recesses. German cockroaches have two black stripes that run horizontally down their head.
- Oriental Cockroach. These large cockroaches are over an inch in length, and have a dark brown or black color. Known as “the waterbug of roaches”, these are particularly difficult to eliminate. The Oriental Cockroach like wet environments, such as near leaking pipes, under appliances, or under debris, leaves, or firewood.
- American Cockroach. The largest common cockroach in the US, the American cockroach can reach 1 ½ inches in length. This roach is brownish colored, and fits in tight spaces, cracks, and crevices. American cockroaches can fly and also run quickly. They nest in sewers and near water sources.
- Brown Banded Cockroach. This is a smaller cockroach, only about 5/8 of an inch long. The roach is named for two light bands on its abdomen. The brown banded cockroach is light tan or brown and can jump. The males of the species can fly. These roaches do not need as much moisture as the other species, meaning they can live in varied environments.
- Turkestan Cockroach. These reddish or light brown cockroaches live primarily outdoors, though they can come indoors when outdoor populations are at their peak. About an inch long, the Turkestan cockroach is a nuisance pest, especially for commercial properties, as they love to nest near trash receptacles, coming out to feed at night. The males can fly. Turkenstan roaches are sometimes confused for American cockroaches.

How do Roaches Enter Your Home?
How to Get Rid of Cockroaches
- Sealing cracks & crevices on the foundation and exterior of your home.
- Keeping surfaces & floors clean of food and sugary substances. Roaches love sugar and starches.
- Emptying indoor trash cans out daily. Cockroaches can feed on decaying matter and trash.
- Store food in sealed containers. Roaches do not need much food to survive and reproduce.
- Avoid bringing in used appliances, furniture, and clothing items into your home without properly inspecting them first.
- Avoid having standing water indoors and outdoors. Roaches use damp areas to breed and produce egg sacs.
- Keeping your attic and crawlspaces well ventilated and dry. Roaches love dark, damp places.
- Lastly, a regular cockroach barrier & protection plan will prevent your home from experiencing a full-blow infestation.
