Common Signs & Potential Dangers of a Roach Infestation
Roaches are nocturnal and like to hide in dark, warm places. They are also very good at hiding, so you may not see them during the day. However, there are some signs to look out for that may indicate you have a problem.
Look for the following:
- Droppings: Roach fecal matter looks like coffee grounds or black pepper. You may find this in your kitchen, bathroom, or other areas of your home.
- Eggs and egg casings: Roach eggs are small and oval-shaped and the casings from hatched eggs are brown and oval-shaped. Both generally appear around places where roaches may hide or nest, such as in clutter or around food sources.
- Unusual odors: Roaches produce a musty odor. If you notice an unexplained smell in your home, you may have a roach problem.
If you notice any of these signs, it is important to call a professional. At Accel Pest and Termite Control, we offer effective roach control in Newport News and the surrounding areas to help eliminate your roach problem and help you prevent future infestations.
After all, having a cockroach infestation on your property can lead to potential hazards, including:
- Health risks: Cockroaches are known carriers of bacteria and viruses that can cause diseases like salmonella, dysentery, and gastroenteritis.
- Allergic reactions: Roach droppings and shed skin can trigger allergic reactions and asthma, especially in children.
- Food contamination: As they scuttle across your kitchen and pantry, cockroaches can contaminate your food supplies.
- Damage to property: Cockroaches can damage paper products, books, and even some types of soft plastic.

DIY Steps to Help Prevent Cockroach Infestations
In between our visits, there are several steps you can take to help control the roach population on your property:
- Clean regularly: Regular cleaning, especially in the kitchen and bathroom, can help remove food sources and breeding grounds.
- Keep your home clutter-free: Clutter, such as stacks of paper, boxes, or other accumulated debris, is a prime hiding spot for roaches.
- Seal entry points: Seal cracks, crevices, and gaps where cockroaches could enter your property.
- Proper food storage: Store food in tightly sealed containers and avoid leaving pet food out overnight.
- Dispose of garbage regularly: Take out the trash and ensure your garbage bins are sealed.
