Cockroaches (Dictyoptera)
Cockroaches are common in commercial premises associated with the production of food. They are nocturnal and spend the day hiding in cracks and crevices. They can carry diseases such as dysentery, gastroenteritis, typhoid and poliomyelitis.
Description: Generally two pairs of wings, although these may be small or even absent, fore wings have well developed veins and tend to be hardened, hind wings are folded below fore wings. The antennae have many segments and their mouth parts are adapted for biting. They are usually brown in colour although the shade will vary from a dark to light depending on the species of cockroach.
How to control cockroaches: Insect monitors, regular treatments of insecticidal spray and baits can be used but hygiene management also plays a big part.
