Where Roaches Hide & How to Spot Them
Roaches are nocturnal and excellent at hiding in dark, moist spaces. That’s why you rarely see just one — and why infestations often go unnoticed until they’re widespread.
Common hiding places include:
- Under sinks and appliances
- Inside cabinets and pantries
- Behind wall voids or baseboards
- In electrical outlets and under floorboards
- In basements, utility closets, and water heater rooms
Signs of a cockroach problem:
- Droppings that resemble black pepper or coffee grounds
- Smear marks on walls, especially near water sources
- Musty, oily odor in affected rooms
- Shed skins or egg casings (called oothecae)
- Sightings during the day, indicating a large population
If you’ve noticed even one of these signs, don’t ignore it. Cockroaches multiply fast and are extremely difficult to eliminate without expert intervention.
Why Roaches Are a Serious Health Risk
Roaches are more than just creepy — they’re dangerous. These pests are known to spread bacteria, trigger allergies, and contaminate everything they touch.
Health concerns associated with cockroaches include:
- Salmonella and E. coli contamination from droppings and body parts
- Foodborne illnesses caused by roaches crawling across kitchen surfaces
- Asthma and allergy flare-ups, especially in children
- Skin rashes and eye irritation from prolonged exposure
- Mental health stress, including anxiety or sleep issues
Because roaches are resilient and nocturnal, an infestation can grow quietly for weeks before it's obvious. That’s why early treatment is key — and why you need a pest control company that takes it seriously from day one.
Our Roach Elimination Process
At Liberty Shield, our approach to cockroach extermination is aggressive, thorough, and tailored to your specific situation. We go far beyond the one-size-fits-all sprays used by generic companies.
Comprehensive Inspection
We identify the species of roach (German, American, Oriental, or Brown-banded) and locate the primary nesting zones.
Targeted Treatment
We apply a mix of baits, growth regulators, and dusts in key areas — behind appliances, inside wall voids, and along known travel routes.
Sanitation Guidance
Roaches thrive in areas with food and moisture. We’ll show you how to reduce attractants and block access.

We return 7–14 days after the initial treatment to apply secondary products and confirm elimination.

For properties with recurring issues or past infestations, we offer ongoing services and check-ins.
