Lasting Solutions for Roaches
Cockroaches venture inside homes and commercial buildings looking for shelter with access to food and water. Our homes often fit their needs perfectly, which is the reason roaches are such a common problem.
They are most often found in:
- Kitchens
- Bathrooms
- Basements
- Crawlspaces
- Garages
- Laundry rooms
Cockroaches found in South Carolina include:
- German cockroaches – At about a half inch long, these roaches are among the smaller types of cockroaches. German cockroaches are the most common roaches found inside homes and businesses. Once inside, they feed on anything from food to soap.
- American cockroaches – These large, reddish-brown roaches are the biggest species found inside homes and commercial properties. American cockroaches grow up to three inches long and fly.
- Oriental cockroaches – Oriental cockroaches are black and shiny and about an inch long. They prefer dark, cool places, and have an unpleasant odor.
- Brown banded cockroaches – Brown banded cockroaches are about a half inch long and distinguishable by the banding on their wings. These roaches prefer warm and dry locations, such as the attic or kitchen.
Roaches are more than just a nuisance. They can crawl through the garbage and get into the pantry where they may contaminate your food. They can cause allergic reactions and trigger asthma attacks.

Why Hiring a Professional Makes a Difference
Getting rid of roaches and keeping them out requires professional roach control as well as taking steps to stop new roaches from getting inside. Homeowners often try to deal with cockroaches on their own using general pest control products that are sold in stores. Successfully eliminating a roach infestation requires a knowledgeable and experienced technician with professional grade products.
