Getting Rid of American & German Cockroaches

Cockroaches are the most common insect that humans will ever come in contact with. The most common species of this insect are American and German. Cockroaches tend to stick with humans as we inadvertently provide them with reliable needs; shelter, food, and water. This allows them to thrive and survive.

Coming out of Hibernation

Kansas City is home to a variety of scorpion species. They will hibernate during the winter and come out when it starts to warm up for the spring. This area provides the perfect environment for scorpions. Unfortunately, scorpions will sting you or a family member when they feel threatened or are startled. Many do not even realize a scorpion is hiding out in their clothes or shoes until they’ve been stung. It is a good habit to get into shaking your shoes or clothing out before putting them on. Please call Zip Zap to schedule an appointment for inspection and extermination if there are any scorpions present. 816-407-PEST (7378)
