Are cockroaches harmful?

Cockroaches crawl through waste and garbage, so they may pick up and spread bacteria and diseases. Some adults and children are allergic to cockroaches, and there can be bad odors in areas with a lot of cockroaches. If you or your child have asthma, exposure to cockroaches may cause asthma attacks.

Cockroaches spend most of their time in cracks and crevices.The most preferred areas are those located nearest food and water sources but which are warm and have a high relative humidity. You can find cockroaches in large commercial buildings such as restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, food processing plants, hospitals, etc., where cockroaches usually infest food-storage and food-preparation areas, basements, and steam tunnels. They are also found in homes. During summer months, they can be found outdoors in yards and alleys. They are commonly found in city sewer systems.
