While some people call cockroaches water bugs, they are distinct from what are known as ‘true bugs’, as well as from the giant water bug. Water bugs generally live in water, while cockroaches are attracted to live in damp areas – which can include those in your home like kitchens and bathrooms.
Their diets are different, too, with cockroaches scavenging for their food. That’s another reason why a home can also be attractive to them as crumbs and perhaps pet food could provide what they need. For that reason, being aware of house cleaning tips is crucial and a regular and thorough routine for cleaning your bathroom and cleaning your kitchen with a particular focus on cleaning your bathroom sinks and cleaning kitchen sink drains.
