Cockroaches are still a challenge in many situations, especially commercial food service and manufacturing. Infestations can wreak havoc on customers from both a regulatory and negative publicity standpoint.

Cockroach management must begin with proper identification. The onsite identification of both adults and nymphs is critical for success. Understanding the biology of the identified cockroach will then point to where the cockroaches might be infesting, and a proper inspection will find the source. When all this is done, control measures will become more targeted and effective.
