Dealing with a cockroach infestation can leave you with an unsettling feeling, and now that we are well into winter it is important to take the right steps to prevent a cockroach infestation in your home. Cockroaches need resources such as food, water, and a place to keep warm and hide. As the temperature continues to drop in Atlanta, cockroaches may be looking for shelter inside your warm home that comes with the bonus of being stocked with all of the resources they need to survive.

The key to preventing roaches from infesting your home is to remove the home comforts that they are searching for. Cockroaches mostly come out at night – so they are typically taking refuge in a dark hiding place during daylight hours. Here are some tips to help prevent cockroaches from taking over your home this winter.
