Oriental cockroaches are a major household pest in parts of the northwest, mid-west, and southern United States. They are sometimes referred to as "black beetles" because of their dark black appearance. Oriental cockroaches are slow movers, can barely climb and few are capable of flying. They will eat practically anything they can find, from the finest food to the disgusting slime that builds up in drains. The oriental cockroach is one of the filthiest of cockroaches but can be eliminated by our expert pest control services.
