This is why it’s important to get rid of cockroach infestations as soon as possible.

To get rid of the infestation, I used a combination of baits and insecticides. I placed baits in strategic locations around the kitchen, such as in cabinets and under the sink. I also sprayed insecticides in areas where the roaches were likely to hide, such as behind appliances and in cracks in the walls.
