Cockroaches remain a major nuisance in residential and commercial settings. That is certainly not hard to believe in Louisiana, where the startled “I saw a roach THIS BIG!” comment is often heard. From the larger American cockroach to the smaller German cockroach, and a host of species in between, Louisiana has them all. But it takes an experienced pest control technician to know exactly which species he’s dealing with, because biology, food preferences, living habits, etc., vary. If you have an infestation in your home or business, DA Exterminating can immediately kill cockroaches with its pest removal services.

A cockroach population in your home or business should not go untreated. Besides being unsightly, they are a threat to your health. They track through dirt and sewage leaving harmful germs on their legs that can spread bacteria and even parasitic worms.

How do you get cockroaches?

Maybe the problem is sanitation. Or it could be a matter of sealing up entry points in the structure where the cockroaches are entering. Maybe they hitchhiked a ride in grocery bags. However they got in, DA has technicians who know how to get them out.

Recent medical studies show that some allergic reactions of inner-city children have a direct link to cockroach allergens and can even cause asthma in some cases. Allergens can develop from droppings, cast skins and dead bodies of cockroaches.
