Cockroaches are one of the most annoying creatures to sneak into your home. Cockroaches can spread bacteria in your home and possibly bring illness to your family. They are ugly and scary and make the room look unclean! Luckily, we usually buy cockroach traps to catch them all! But are you really putting the trap in the right place? Next, I will show you some of the most effective places to place roach traps. Let's take a look!

Behind the kitchen counter

       The kitchen is the place to provide delicious food for our family, and cockroaches are no exception. Cockroaches tend to hide in damp, dark places and come out at night, so behind kitchen counters is the best place for them to hide. Because it's dark and damp and we can't hit it, so smart cockroaches hide there. In fact, you can also place traps all over the kitchen because they love being there too much!

Next to the shower

       Cockroaches also need water to survive, and most prefer to move around in wet environments. The wettest environment in your home will be near the shower room, which is why this area is an excellent choice for placing a cockroach trap or two. In fact, you can put one or two traps in each bathroom attachment.

Near the heater

       I mentioned above that cockroaches like to move around in wet environments, but it doesn't stop there. Any warm environment is a cockroach's favorite place to be. The heating system in your home will also provide warmth. Place at least one trap near your heater or heating system. This is an area where roach nests are widely found, so keep this in mind when you place your traps.

Next to/behind the refrigerator

       Although the inside of the refrigerator is cold, the outside is hot. This means cockroaches will be happy to hide in the area around the fridge.Not only is this a warm area, but there may also be a small leak or collection of water from which roaches can drink. We can pull out the fridge and put at least one roach trap behind or next to it.  

Conclusion

       When considering where to place roach traps, you should also place them in areas where you see roaches or evidence of roach activity. Of course, this is not an exhaustive list of places to place cockroach traps, but these are the 4 most common places, and the 4 places where we have caught the most cockroaches over the years of experiments.
