Cockroach
What do they look like?
Cockroaches are insects ranging in size from 3-80mm, with their entire bodies covered in light brown or black. Cockroaches have irregular feeding habits, while male cockroaches spend most of their time foraging for food, female cockroaches just stay in one place without eating or drinking anything. Female cockroaches usually produce 30-40 eggs every 2-3 weeks, and can have 2 to 3 breeding seasons each year. Because of the negative effects of cockroaches on human life, you need to find a cockroach extermination service as soon as you discover them. This helps to completely destroy cockroaches and prevent them from developing and reproducing in the future.
