Not only do cockroaches pose significant health risks, they are extremely hard to kill. They pick up bacteria and pathogens on the spines of their legs and then spread them onto food preparation surfaces. They are also known to cause allergic reactions and trigger asthma attacks. Cockroaches are also resilient and reproduce quickly. That’s why a small cockroach problem can quickly become an infestation.
