"Whatever It Takes!"
AMERICAN
COCKROACHES |
American Cockroaches
can be found in All 50 States |
|
|
The American cockroach is the
largest of the house-infesting cockroach.
 Habits American cockroaches are found in
food processing areas and food storage areas, as well as other types of
buildings. They are active when the temperature is 70 degrees or higher, but
they can survive lower temperatures with the right conditions.
Habitat American cockroaches are often
found in sewers and basements, particularly around pipes and drains.
Threats Cockroaches have been reported to
spread at least 33 kinds of bacteria, six kinds of parasitic worms, and at
least seven other kinds of human pathogens. They can pick up germs on the
spines of
their legs and bodies as they crawl through decaying matter or sewage and
then carry these into food or onto food surfaces. Germs that cockroaches eat
from decaying matter or sewage are protected while in
their bodies and may remain infective for several weeks longer than if they
had been exposed to cleaning agents, rinse water, or just sunlight and
air. Recent medical studies have shown that cockroach allergens cause lots
of allergic reactions in inner city children. They were even shown to cause
asthma in children. These allergens build up in deposits of droppings,
secretions, cast skins, and dead bodies of roaches.

Prevention In most
cases, Parker Pest Control Inc., will
use a very fine boric powder. The powder is applied with a
patented pressurized machine, that
applies an electrostatic charge to the powder to give it the
ability to cling to just about anything. This
process assures complete elimination. With
Parker Pest Control's exclusive P.E.S.T.® (Pest Elimination Systems Treatment) program, houses are treated just one
time and given a one year
money-back warranty.
NOTE: Most
Commercial businesses require monthly
applications.
