Cockroaches are one of the most common pests in North Carolina, making their way into even the cleanest homes. Cockroaches can enter your home in numerous ways, including through small holes and cracks, openings around windows and doors, attaching themselves to personal belongings (hitchhiking), and more. Roaches are one of the most challenging infestations to get rid of because they are master hiders, breed quickly, and may develop resistance to pesticides.

Roaches are nocturnal pests, meaning any sightings are more likely to occur at night. However, there are some common signs that can be noticed during the day that could indicate roach activity after dark.
The top signs of roaches include:
● Fecal Droppings - Depending on the size of the roach, their droppings can appear like tiny pepper specks or miniature pellets. A large amount of droppings in an area is a pretty clear indication of an infestation.
● Foul Smell - Some species of roaches emit a foul odor. If a space starts to smell musty and unpleasant, or that odor is becoming more pungent and clear, it may be from a large number of roaches.
● Skin Sheds - As roaches grow and mature, they shed their skin approximately five to eight times. If roaches are taking up residence in a space, there is a possibility of finding a plethora of sheds in that area.
● Smear Marks - In areas with a lot of moisture, roaches leave behind a brown, irregularly shaped trail everywhere they go. You can find these smear marks on horizontal surfaces, around where the wall and floor meet, and on fabrics.
