Health-related problems caused by cockroaches include asthma and allergies. Cockroaches are also potential mechanical vectors of disease and have been shown to be capable of harboring the pathogens that cause urinary tract infections, conjunctivitis, pneumonia, wound infections, and food poisoning. Pathogens may be spread by oral or fecal contact, or by cockroaches walking across surfaces or through food. Given the opportunity, cockroaches will aslo feed on human tissue, secretions and hair, resulting in direct contact with humans and possible direct transmission of pathogens.
When cockroach populations are small, detection usually occurs at night during cockroach foraging periods. However, when moderate to large infestations are present, cockroaches may forage during the day or harbor in open areas, making them readily observable. Cockroaches are also detected because they leave behind fecal material and hatched egg cases. They are also noticeable by the very distinct odor produced when present in large numbers.
Prevention or elimination of cockroach infestations in food service facilities depends first upon a high level of sanitiation.
Storage: All foods should be stored in original containers until ready for use. Broken packages or partially used packages should be stored in containers with tight fitting lids.

Big Pharma Companies Hate This...

In this short and controversial health exposé, I’m going reveal the one amazing little secret, long suppressed by Big Pharma, that will bulletproof your body against the scary illnesses like Cancer, Heart disease, Diabetes, Alzheimer's, Arthritis and more....and its something that you can do right now in your home.
Without ever popping a single pill, getting any dreaded needle, prescriptions of any kind. Even sidestepping alternative therapies that never seem to work. Ineffective supplements that waste time and frustrate you to no end. Not to mention tear a hole in your wallet...
...Or even put you in an early grave.
