Another 31 dead cockroaches were found

On June 16, the Fujian Xiamen International Travel Health Care Center identified the 47 cockroaches that had been intercepted by the Xiamen Customs Airport Customs on an incoming maintenance aircraft as German cockroaches.

Various pathogenic bacteria, including Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Sphingomonas paucimobilis, and Escherichia hermanni, were detected from the 16 live cockroaches sent for inspection.

After testing, it was found that the cockroaches carried Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Escherichia hermanni on their bodies, which can easily cause diseases such as cephalohematoma, meningitis, sepsis, and suppurative arthritis in people with low immune function who already have serious underlying diseases. The harm cannot be ignored!

I guess many people have experienced this.

Cockroaches are still everywhere

Not only that

Cockroaches are the first of the "new four pests"

It's a germ dump.

Carry dozens or even hundreds of germs

Such as plague bacteria, Escherichia coli, etc.

Once it crawls onto your food...

Especially the big flying cockroaches in the south

Every minute makes you want to explode on the spot

1 = 10,000? Too much

As social creatures, cockroaches have a limited number of activities in their area. If there are too many of them, their reproductive capacity will be restricted.

Expert explanation: For an average household, if you find one cockroach, there will be a group of cockroaches behind it, with about dozens of them active.

Actually, the claim of 10,000 is too exaggerated. The number of cockroaches depends on the living environment. Generally speaking, there are more cockroaches in old buildings than in new buildings.

Can vegetables kill cockroaches? Not true

As for whether placing cucumbers, onions, and peppercorns in corners and door cracks is feasible to kill cockroaches? The reporter conducted a related experiment, placing equal numbers of cockroaches in the same container and observing their reactions.

In the experiment, the cockroaches did not stay away from the cucumbers in the container, but continued to crawl around the cucumbers. After more than ten minutes, the cockroaches were still active.

In the container with onions, the cockroaches not only moved freely, but even climbed onto the onions and started eating them.

In the container with Sichuan pepper, cockroaches had a greater reaction. The test showed that the cockroaches that were originally all on the right began to run to the left after the Sichuan pepper was placed, avoiding the pepper. Therefore, Sichuan pepper has a certain stimulating effect on cockroaches, but it has not yet reached the effect of eliminating cockroaches.

What is the most effective way to kill cockroaches?

1. Treat the symptoms: Use professional cockroach removal medicine

Ordinary residents can use professional insect spray and cockroach removal medicine. But this can only kill cockroaches that can be seen on the surface.

2. Root cause treatment: Use professional biological bait

If you want to kill cockroaches hiding in their nests and their offspring in the egg sacs at their tails, "you need professional biological poison baits," experts explained. Poison baits are usually applied to the walls or cabinets of a room. Cockroaches will be poisoned after touching or eating them, and then they will infect each other. After three days, all the cockroaches in the room can be basically eliminated.

3. Treat the environment: dehumidify the kitchen regularly

Managing the living environment is the fundamental solution. "Cockroaches like warm, dark, humid, dirty and messy environments." Families with conditions can install special kitchen air conditioners and water heaters to dehumidify, which can lower the temperature in the kitchen, dehumidify the dry environment, and keep the room clean.
