Why do I have cockroaches?
It doesn’t take much to attract cockroaches to your home but a few good habits can cut off their food supply, leaving them to move past your home and infest some other space. Don’t give cockroaches a moment to infect your home with harmful bacteria. Habits like:
- Containing all food use to the kitchen
- Promptly take out kitchen and bathroom trash when full
- Keep trash away from the outside of the house
- Don’t let any water stand inside the home
Keep those spine-chilling bugs from taking a second look at your Monterey County home by making a few changes that go a long way.
