Oriental Roaches

Oriental roaches are dark brown to black insects with a shiny appearance and a distinctive foul odor. These pests prefer cool, damp environments and are often found in basements, crawl spaces, and around drains. Oriental roaches are nocturnal and primarily feed on decaying organic matter. Infestations can be identified by the presence of adult roaches, egg cases, and a strong, musty odor. Effective control of Oriental roaches involves eliminating moisture sources, sealing entry points, and applying targeted insecticide treatments.
