Cockroaches crawling from neighbors: what to do with it, why do insects run to you and what measures to take to make them disappear?

These insects cause in most people a sharp instinctive disgust and a desire to immediately destroy.

The appearance of a cockroach in the house, especially during the day, speaks of the extreme degree of unsanitary conditions. In the fight against insects, we have both allies and, oddly enough, opponents.

What to do if cockroaches systematically crawl into your house from neighbors? This article describes in detail how cockroaches can appear and how to deal with them using various methods.

Where are they crawling from?

The reason for the appearance of cockroaches where they were not there before is their natural migration:

having multiplied, they became crowded in the territory of their neighbors, and they pushed you down;
Neighbors declared war on uninvited guests, and the surviving part of the population immediately moved through the ventilation ducts and gaps in the floor to new places;
the scout lurked in purchases brought from the supermarket, and if it is a female, then the brood of parasites is inevitable;
a package came to someone from an online store located in a distant hot country, where everything is very cheap, and with sanitation things are so-so;
someone likes to travel and stay in cheap (!) hotels, hostels, etc.and for a long time leaves the house, full of things brought from a trip, without supervision;
someone lent someone a thing that they took on a voyage and returned without washing it, and with it the female parasite.

Why don't they leave?

And because they liked it here.

They always run to where they are:

heat;
food;
water.

Obviously in a new place where there are leftovers for cockroaches on the floor there is enough food (bread crumbs on the table, a bucket with garbage not thrown away, unwashed dishes in the sink, dirty stove, poorly washed pan, burned fat on the bottom of the pan), water (leaking tap, cups of tea on the table, water for flowers in an open container) , and dichlorvos does not smell.

A natural enemy - the owner of housing - unlike them, sleeps at night. And they know how to hide.

Attention! Find cockroach nests in the apartment is very difficult.

Why is it hard to get rid of them?

It is difficult to reduce the population of cockroaches on the vine, because over the millennia of existence, cunning insects have developed several mechanisms of adaptation to poisons and climatic conditions, and even radiation does not care about them.Dinosaurs and mammoths became extinct, and cockroaches adapted.

They know how to pretend to be dead, or rather, to lose consciousness from the poison. By sweeping away the corpses of cockroaches in a scoop and throwing them into the garbage chute, a person helps them survive. Having recovered from the action of poison in the garbage, the parasite will soon continue the earthly path. Therefore, dispose of poisoned cockroaches can only be in the sewer.
They learned to live up to a month without food or even without a head. It is difficult for them only without water, so they are often stationed in the kitchen and in the bathroom. Therefore, it is so important that the plumbing in the house is not leaking and the sinks are dry.
They are able to regulate the size of the population. and reduce fertility under adverse conditions - especially when they are being bullied. Residents, harassing, notice that the number of insects has decreased, and calm down: that the rest will die out soon. No, not die!
The breeding cycle of cockroaches is two months. During baiting, females breed not so actively, but still breed. If the owners fold their hands at this stage of the struggle, the cockroaches of the uterus will multiply their efforts. Therefore, it is possible to breathe out carefully only if three months have passed and no running prusak in the house has been noticed.

Necessary measures to eliminate them

If you run from other apartments

Do not immediately declare war on people. It is better to start a conversation on this unpleasant topic calmly. Perhaps it will be possible to solve the matter in peace. But if they do not want to cooperate, then By law, you have the right to apply to the sanitary epidemiological station with a statement. A representative of the SES will arrive, inspect the apartment, record the fact and issue an opinion on the diagnosis.

Important! Beforehand, it is necessary to find out if he has the right to issue verification documents.

With these documents, you can go to court with a complaint about the neighbors, because you can only oblige them to process your housing by a court decision. Also You can call the HOA, residential retailer, housing management, inspections on sanitary and hygienic measures of the city.

If other tenants do not want to get rid of them

If cockroaches multiplied in a neglected apartment of their neighbors and are already flooding your home, and the owners of an infected apartment are partially liable, then to create a complaint with them:

direct evidence of the presence of cockroaches from neighbors will be required, and the applicant will have to collect this evidence;
the applicant's house must be immaculate from the sanitary point of view, otherwise the SES will file a claim against him.

If the tenants are staring insects, and they run to you

So, they did not warn you about the persecution of parasites, which is also a violation.

Neighbors' sanity can be established in the process of communicating with them, but you will not force the cockroaches to wait, and you will have to take care of the cleanliness of the house urgently.

Noticing a crawler from ventilation, from a gap in the floor or an electrical outlet of a neighboring cockroach, it is necessary:

set traps;
remove food from open access;
fluff the baseboards with a special gel or other means;
fix plumbing.
wash the apartment with disinfectants (liquid ammonia deters cockroaches, and if their units are called reconnaissance, then the main population will not put a mustache here for a long time);

Who should poison them?

According to the law, the Criminal Code is responsible for the sanitary condition of the house and home territory. But if, within their own homes, everyone chooses the means to kill cockroaches,then in the case when insects penetrate into the apartments from the garbage chute, porch, basement, attic, Article 161 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation obliges the management company to immediately take action. Harassment cockroaches made once a year, in case of emergency - on additional request.

Attention! The management company should destroy parasites in the house exclusively at its own expense, since our rent already includes the possible costs of fighting insects. No levies on tenants are not allowed, it is against the law.

How to make the CC solve the problem?

If the Criminal Code refuses to fulfill its duties, you can write a complaint to the regional prosecutor's office. With a class action law, the likelihood of a positive outcome increases, but for this you need to collect up to 80% of the signatures of the residents of an apartment building or an entrance.

However, even in this case, to resolve the issue will require a sufficient amount of time, which works, alas, in favor of the cockroaches, and not the tenants. Therefore, while the court matter ...

Insect control

If you are lucky with your neighbors and they are ready to lime the infection by common efforts, it is better to immediately turn to professional disinsectors. And more efficiently and economically.At the disposal of experts, the best remedies for annoying domestic insects, against which they have not yet had time to develop immunity.

Ultrasonic traps also show good performance.

If you set them at the same time and to the maximum, the hordes of arthropods will gush away. You should not expect an instant effect, as the females in any case have already laid eggs, and from them new pests will inevitably hatch, after which they either have to repeat the sanitation, or wait for the first one to work, depending on the means used.
