The key is to deny the pest the resources they need to survive by thoroughly cleaning up spilled food, dropping crumbs, and other debris around the house.
  2. Store food in a tight plastic container. Always keep food that has been open airtight, containers that can be closed again. Let them be stored in the refrigerator or in the cabinet after every use.
  3. Always leave the kitchen clean before bed. After a long and exhausting day, it is tempting to relax after dinner and leave the kitchen chores until the next morning. Unfortunately, the dirty dishes left in the sink overnight are what will attract pests from the wood. It takes just a few minutes to clean the kitchen, but it will have a positive impact in removing cockroaches and other pests.
  4. Eliminate the standing water source. Cockroaches can last long enough without food, but they can only live for a week or more without water. That is why it is very important to clean the existing water source. Maintain repairs on leaking pipes or water basins, and remove areas where water collects into small puddles - both inside and outside the home.
  5. Replace Combat Baits and Gels once every three months. If you notice that the feed you've placed is empty, replace it with a fresh feed. The empty feed is a sure indicator that Combat is working. If the feed does not seem touched for several months, it is a good indication that you have brought your cockroach problem under control.
That's it, now you can protect your home from cockroaches attack. just remember, cockroaches always love a messy kitchen or table food. Make sure you always cleaning all of food place after you have a feast. And if the cockroaches still appear in your house, call a professional or you can buy a machine gun and dynamite to blow up your house.. :D
