    There’s cockroaches in my kitchen, but how did they get here?

    Roaches are a real pain, especially if you find them in your kitchen, as they can contaminate your food and drink. Many types of roaches gain access to properties from the outside, and their flat bodies allow them to crawl through very tight spaces. Therefore, it is important to check the area around your kitchen for gaps, cracks and holes that may serve as entry points. You can also use weather stripping around your doors and seal areas around windows that roaches may be able to crawl through. It is important also that roaches will be attracted if you make your kitchen habitable to them so make sure you clean your kitchen regularly.
