Cockroaches

Cockroaches are one of the most resilient and unwelcome household pests. These insects are known for their ability to survive in a wide range of environments and can quickly become a problem once they find food, water, and shelter inside a home or business. Cockroaches are most commonly found in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and other areas where moisture and food sources are present.

Aside from being unpleasant to encounter, cockroaches can contaminate food and surfaces as they move throughout a structure. They are primarily active at night and tend to hide in cracks, crevices, and dark areas during the day. Because they reproduce quickly, even a small infestation can grow rapidly if left untreated.

Several species of cockroaches can be found in Utah, each with slightly different habits and preferred environments. Understanding the type of cockroach present is an important step in determining the most effective treatment approach.

Below are some of the most common cockroach species found in homes and businesses.
