Why cockroaches are dangerous?

Answer 1

Cockroaches are a common and dangerous pest. They breed prolifically in the unseen regions of our homes and businesses. Cockroaches can survive for prolonged periods without food and water enabling them to be transported with goods from one region to another and from country to country via ships and planes. They are the ultimate free loaders. Cockroaches are nocturnal. Apart from seeing them at night, further evidence of a substantial infestation may include droppings, cast-off skins and dead cockroaches - in dark corners, cupboards, pantries and under furniture and white goods. Cockroaches share our food, water, shelter, and warmth. They will consume any human food or drink, pet food, dead animals and plant matter including animal and paper products. Cockroaches contaminate food and carry diseasessuch as salmonella and diptheria and causing symptoms of abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
