Beside from the hazards that are posted above, cockroaches have the ability to emit airborne pheromones for swarming and mating. These chemical trails transmit bacteria, which other cockroaches can follow. A single cockroach can lay up to 300 eggs and a few cockroaches can easily multiply to thousands within months, which makes it a big challenge in controlling them. Cockroaches also have the ability to develop a quick resistance to poisons, thus doing your own roach management especially around your business property is not a good idea. The potential harm that these cockroaches can do to your business is great and needs prompt solution as soon as they are seen.
