Never Leave a Dead Roach Behind… Here’s Why 👀
Understanding Roach Behavior and Control
The Problem with Conventional Roach Control
- When a roach is sprayed, it dies, but this is not the end of the problem. The dead body emits a scent that attracts other roaches.
- Other roaches feed on the deceased body, which can lead to an increase in their population as they adapt to the poison used against them.
- Over time, these roaches may evolve to become resistant or stronger than before due to repeated exposure to pesticides.
- A more effective strategy involves cutting off their food supply and sealing entry points rather than relying solely on sprays.
- Allowing the colony to starve by preventing access to food sources is suggested as a more sustainable solution.
