Signs of Cockroach Infestation
DROPPINGS (FECES)
Cockroach droppings are similar to mouse droppings, but theirs are more blunt in the end. Cockroach droppings are usually found in areas where they often hide, and where they scavenge for food and water. Areas whereyou find more droppings only mean that there is high traffic of cockroaches and you should make note of this area. Check behind your appliances, under the sink, basement, pantries and other food storage areas. SPOTTING EGG CAPSULES (OOTHECA) Finding even one of these egg capsules only mean you have roaches present in your home and they are starting to breed and grow. Their egg capsules can be as long as 38 mm and they usually contain 10-20 eggs inside. All the more reason you need to get rid of live eggs when you spot one. You don't want them to hatch.
