Where are the cockroaches? We also explain the intrusion route and countermeasures!

Whether you find them in your home or take preventative measures, you may be wondering where cockroaches live in your home. This time, we will also introduce in detail the places where cockroaches are often found in the house, their intrusion routes, and countermeasures.

1) Where and why are cockroaches common

Cockroaches prefer moist, dark and warm places. As they are nocturnal, they tend to hide in small areas that are not exposed to direct sunlight during the day. Here are four places in your home where cockroaches tend to congregate.・In the kitchen, living room, washroom, bathroom, and other places, I will explain specifically what kind of place it is.

1-1) Kitchen

There is plenty of leftover food and water in the kitchen, making it a perfect feeding ground for cockroaches. (1) Around the sink The area around the sink, where food residue and moisture often remain, is a very comfortable environment for cockroaches to live in. Take measures such as not leaving food waste in the triangular corner and wiping the water out of the sink at the end of the day. ②Behind refrigerators and microwave ovens Cockroaches prefer small and warm places, so there is a high possibility that they will nest under and behind refrigerators and microwave ovens. ③ Storage space The cupboard and the storage space under the sink are also spots that cockroaches love because they can easily fit in a corner without being exposed to the sun. ④ Garbage bin Be careful of the garbage can. A closed trash can with a lid is recommended to prevent cockroaches from entering.

1-2) Living Room

Cockroaches are often found moving quickly on walls, ceilings, and floors. In the living room, it usually hides between the furniture and the wall. (1) Behind furniture Behind sofas, under beds, and behind bookshelves are favorite places for cockroaches. (2) Around the TV As with the refrigerator, the area around the home appliance is warm and tends to create dark, narrow gaps between it and the wall, making it easy for cockroaches to nest. ③There are also cockroaches that enter the air conditioner through the air conditioner drain hose.
