Habits
Due to their habits of moving between waste and food, cockroaches can be important mechanical vectors generating dangerous human pathogens such as bacteria or protozoan viruses, being responsible for various contaminations in the food industry.
Cockroaches shed a nasty discharge from their mouths, impregnating the food they contact with, leaving a distinctive odor. They are omnivores, of nocturnal activity; they shy away from light (negative phototropism), and live in dark, quiet, humid, and warm places, such as kitchens, restaurants, hospitals, food factories, supermarkets, houses, etc., preferably hiding in the motors of electrical appliances such as refrigerators, microwave ovens, coffee machines, electrical switches, extractor hoods, close to food and water sources.
