They have small sizes - 1 - 1.5 centimeters, brown chitinous shell, developed wings for short planning. Black cockroaches, in size, are much larger, the length of the body of an adult can sometimes reach even 8 centimeters.

  2. The presence of water - the condition of living cockroaches. Places of high humidity for insects are of greatest interest: leakage of water from shower cabins, sewer pipes, sink with water leftovers.

These are conditions favorable for settling and development in the apartment of cockroaches. Cockroaches are mobile, able to crawl even through small cracks. Moreover, the features of the structure of multi-storey buildings, allow insects to migrate easily from one apartment to another. Forcing cockroaches to resettle the lack of food base - food, water, as well as carrying out disinsection work.

Although new aerosol products are free from an unpleasant odor, they are still toxic to humans and pets. Active substances dimethylsulfoxide, piperonyl butoxide, cypermethrin penetrate the cockroach through the spiracles, paralyze the activity of the nervous system, which quickly leads to the death of the insect.

When spraying a substance on cockroaches and their nests, the greatest effect is achieved. But to destroy the oviposition of cockroaches at one time will not work. Need a re-treatment to permanently get rid of cockroaches.
