What Attracts Roaches?
Cockroaches are notorious for triggering allergies, spreading disease, and creating an unclean living environment. The first step to removing roaches is knowing what attracts them to your home. It doesn’t matter what kind of roaches your home has, but we know they’re not welcome in your space.
It's important to know what attracts roaches in order to prevent them becoming a pest on your property. Sealing cracks and crevices around doors and windows, keeping food in sealed containers, and regularly cleaning and decluttering your home or business can help create a less hospitable environment for roaches and reduce the likelihood of an infestation.
These are the common culprits that attract roaches:
- Food: Roaches will eat anything, but they are especially fond of starches, sweets, greasy food, and meat. Things like dirty dishes, pet food, garbage, and crumby counters bring roaches into your home.
- Shelter: Your home becomes the perfect shelter for cockroaches because they don’t enjoy the cold. Instead, they’ll look for quiet and undisrupted areas such as under large appliances, basement corners, and the attic.
- Water: Leaky pipes, pet water bowls, and open showers provide the necessary water roaches need to survive. For affordable and expert cockroach control in Los Angeles, trust our team.
- By identifying and eliminating common attractants, you can significantly reduce the risk of a cockroach infestation. In addition, knowing what attracts roaches can also help you take proactive measures to prevent an infestation from occurring in the first place.

Ensure all holes are sealed on the outside of your home. Our team can help identify potential entry points providing shelter for these pests.
Here are some facts about cockroaches that you may not know:
- They can live up to a week without a head
- Cockroaches come in groups and leave bacteria and disease.
- Cockroaches will run away from light
- They can live up to three months without food and a month without water
- Their feces leave chemical trails as they search for food and water
- There are over 5,000 species, but only the American Cockroach, Oriental Cockroach, and German Cockroach tend to enter homes
German cockroaches are the most common in the US because they breed the fastest. One female roach can give birth to over 30,000 individuals in a year. They are flat and broad with long legs and antennas. American cockroaches are the largest of the three main species and have the longest lifespan. These can reach 3” in length and are brown with light yellow edges. Oriental roaches are typically black, only an inch long, and cannot fly like other species.
