Despite our numerous attempts to eradicate them, it happens that cockroaches settle in our house. These repulsive insects are attracted to warm and moist corners. To get rid of them for good, there is an unbeatable trick with baking soda and other tips on how to ward off these pests in the future.
Cockroaches, cockroaches or cockroaches – all these designations designate one and the same insect that we fear so much. And for good reason, because it can be very tedious to get rid of them. These small animals have a tendency to populate strategically important places in our homes, multiplying very quickly in the process. This is because the males attract the females and vice versa through pheromones and vibrations to gather with their conspecifics and form a colony, creating the risk of infestation. Fortunately, it is not impossible to remove them from your home if you follow these good tips.
Cockroaches are attracted to dark, damp and warm places.
Whether crawling or flying, cockroaches tend to settle in the least accessible corners of the house. Sometimes they can also be found in skirting boards, cracks or crevices in the walls. In France, the German cockroach is the most widespread omnivorous species. It prefers the night to move around in dark rooms and can even come out of pipes, the dishwasher, the refrigerator, the sink, the garbage chute or the vacuum cleaner. As a rule, commercially available cockroach repellents are preferred to eliminate the cockroaches. However, these contain toxic chemicals that can prove harmful to health or the environment. For this reason, many people prefer to resort to natural alternatives to eradicate the unwanted creepy-crawlies. And for good reason, because they are not only invasive, but can also carry harmful germs and pathogens.
