Understanding Cockroaches and Their Behavior
Cockroaches are highly adaptable insects that thrive in various environments, particularly those that provide food, water, and shelter. They are nocturnal and often hide in dark, moist places during the day, making them difficult to detect.
Common Types of Cockroaches in New Jersey:
- German Cockroaches: The most common indoor cockroach, small and light brown with two dark stripes on their backs.
- American Cockroaches: Larger than other species, reddish-brown, and often found in basements, sewers, and drains.
- Oriental Cockroaches: Also known as water bugs, they are dark brown or black and prefer damp, cool areas.

I had a chat with Michael from Simply the Best Pest Control and he was super easy to talk to. He broke down all the services they offer, really listened to me, and had answers for everything I asked.
Then there was Phil, their Field Tech, who came over to my place. He was supposed to be here sometime between 10 and 1, and sure enough, he showed up at 10:45 am. Just like Michael, Phil was awesome to chat with. He paid attention to my concerns and was on the ball with his answers.
Honestly, I've gotta give these guys a solid 5 stars. I've been running my own home for a while now and have seen a bunch of companies come and go. Simply, they're up there with the best of them. Really respectful, easygoing, and just nice people.
Big thanks to the team at Simply the Best! You guys rock.

Signs of a Cockroach Infestation
The sooner you eliminate cockroaches from your home, the sooner you can get back to normal. While a professional inspection is the best way to determine whether or not you’re dealing with a cockroach infestation, there are a few indicators you can keep an eye out for.
Detecting a cockroach infestation early can help prevent a larger problem. Common signs include:
- Seeing Cockroaches: The most obvious sign is seeing cockroaches, especially at night when they are most active.
- Droppings: Small, dark droppings that resemble ground pepper or coffee grounds.
- Egg Cases: Cockroaches lay egg cases called oothecae, which can be found in hidden areas.
- Musty Odor: A strong, musty odor may indicate a large infestation.
- Shed Skins: Cockroaches shed their skins as they grow, leaving behind exoskeletons.

How can I prevent cockroaches from infesting my home?
To prevent cockroach infestations, keep your home clean and free of food debris, store food in sealed containers, fix any leaks to eliminate moisture sources, and seal cracks and crevices where cockroaches can enter. Regular inspections and preventive treatments by professional pest control services can also help keep cockroaches at bay.
