Cockroaches in the kitchen is a serious concern so it is always better to take some preventive steps from early on rather than later thinking of ways on how to get rid of them after they have already made your kitchen their living space. In this respect, I have some amazing tips to share with you that will help you prevent cockroaches in kitchen much easily and effectively.

How to prevent cockroaches from entering your kitchen

Prevention is always better than the cure and that is true in case of cockroach prevention in the kitchen as well. It’s much easier to prevent cockroach from entering your kitchen in the beginning than getting rid of roaches once it is deeply infested. So, here is a list of natural tips and easy hacks to prevent cockroach from entering your kitchen. Take note of them and see how things go in your favor.

Eliminate all sources of food

Well, you know the dirtier your kitchen is, the more apt it will be for the cockroaches to feed, breed and thrive. After all, if they are getting so many spilled foods and grains, or food residues without struggling much, why will they not stay in such a place? But, the fact is, the more they feel comfortable staying in your kitchen; the more difficult it’s going to be for you to eradicate them.

So, make it a habit to get rid of any food residue, food spills or leftover foods after you have completed your cooking. This is like mandatory if you want to prevent the cockroaches in your kitchen. You will have to eliminate all sources of food and keep your kitchen as clean as possible to keep the cockroaches away. Even, you should try to get rid of food stains and food odors; otherwise these can also attract the cockroaches and you may not be able to prevent cockroaches from entering your kitchen easily.

Clean kitchen cabinets

See, kitchen cabinets are usually used to keep the kitchen appliances or store the non-perishable food items (by this, I mean to refer to those items which need not get refrigerated) or the spices we use while cooking or some other useful items. Now, most of the time when you are cooking, you will take out the item or the appliance you require, use it, clean it and then keep it back again inside the cabinet. But, obviously you may not thoroughly clean the cabinet daily. Well, this is OK to a certain extent as I understand that you run out of energy after so much cooking and cleaning and washing stuffs. But if you want to prevent cockroaches from entering your kitchen, then it is necessary for you to at least clean your kitchen cabinets once weekly or every alternate week.

This is because, cockroach may be hiding in one of your kitchen cabinets and you may not be even aware of it. So, to avoid such a situation it is necessary that you take out all of the items from each of your kitchen cabinet and thoroughly clean the space every week or alternate week. By keeping the kitchen cabinets clean and clutter free, you will be able to eliminate a hiding place for the roaches and that helps in preventing them from entering your kitchen.

Don’t leave unwashed utensils overnight

See, when I tell you to keep your kitchen clean after finishing the cooking every single day, it also includes washing of all the utensils. For some it is very obvious and is a daily habit to clean the utensils immediately after cooking. But for many, that’s not the case and they often leave unwashed utensils overnight and hence the need to mention it separately.

You know, many a times if you are working and have no time, you keep maid servants at home who come for washing clothes and cleaning and dusting your home etc. Now, the rest is fine, but when you keep the last night’s kitchen appliances or utensils to get washed by your maid the next day, then that is a bit risky because it may attract the pests like cockroaches inside your kitchen especially when you keep them in the sink. So, it is important that either you clean all of the used kitchen appliances and utensils immediately or keep them in a safer place (if possible), instead of keeping it in the kitchen sink.

Declutter the kitchen

Any kitchen full of clutter is like an ideal place for the cockroaches to live. And why not, amidst all of the clutter, you will never find where they are hiding. So, one of the best remedies to prevent cockroaches from entering your kitchen is to get rid of all the unnecessary stuffs from your kitchen starting from old stacks of newspaper to unused cardboard boxes, plastic bags, old crockery and glassware to all other forms of clutter. This will also benefit in easy cleaning of your kitchen on a daily basis as well as will help you locate if by chance any cockroach is hiding and then get rid of it as early as possible.

Getting rid of even a single cockroach just when you locate it is necessary as cockroaches’ releases aggregation pheromone in their droppings which acts as a signal for the other cockroaches. This works like an indication that one of their friends has found a safe harborage for all of them. And eventually, they all gather in that space to feed and thrive. Hence, better not take chances and kill or drive away any cockroach from your kitchen as soon as you see it.

Use natural cockroach repellant

Well, kitchen is a very sensitive place of the home and you just can’t use the commercially found insect killers to prevent the cockroaches from coming to your kitchen as they themselves contain harmful chemicals which may cause harm to you and your family members. That is why I would suggest you to use natural cockroach repellants to keep your home especially your kitchen safe from getting contaminated by the cockroaches.

Well, you may use some elements like lemon juice or bay leaves to prevent cockroaches. This is because the smell of these natural ingredients repels the roaches and they prefer staying away from places where such odors are lingering around. So, you can use these very safe and natural cockroach repellants to keep the cockroaches at bay in your kitchen.

Seal the entry points

One of the other effective remedies to prevent cockroaches from entering your kitchen is to seal up all of the entry points. This is really necessary as the cockroaches can crawl through even the tiniest of spaces. So if there are cracks and holes in any part of your kitchen, it is high time to track them and get it sealed properly to prevent entry of roaches. Make sure you carefully survey between the countertops, inside your pantry, in the baseboard and also do not miss out examining your kitchen wall and window.

Well, I know that the task is not easy and that it is definitely time-consuming but if you live in an apartment and have neighbors who fail in the cleanliness department then you need to do your job even better. And, if you take honest efforts on your part, then at the end you are going to be benefitted.

Fix the water seepage

I have already said that cockroaches love moist spaces and so in order to prevent cockroaches from entering your kitchen; you need to keep your kitchen as dry as possible. To get it right, you need fix the water leakage and seepage, if any.

Cockroaches can leave without food for months but they can hardly sustain for days without water and that is why they are often found scurrying underneath your sink. So, you got to take advantage of this weakness of theirs and fix your water leakage and seepage as well as not let water stand anywhere in or near the kitchen. It is also advisable that you do not overwater your indoor plants, because that may also result in seepage and moist space.

Keep it cool

The cockroaches also prefer a little warmer environment, so your aim should be to keep your space as cool as possible. See, when you cook, the temperature in the kitchen automatically rise which becomes favorable for the cockroaches to thrive. But if you can cool down the temperature after completing your cooking, it will help you a lot in preventing the entry of the cockroaches inside your kitchen.

Well, it is not possible to control the outside temperature but you can always use a cooler or an air conditioner to keep the overall temperature in your home cool.

Use natural cockroach bait

While you try out the above-mentioned remedies to prevent cockroaches in kitchen, you can also make and use cockroach bait, naturally. Making natural cockroach bait is easy and it’ll help you tackle any cockroach which has crossed the borders and entered your kitchen territory.

To make the cockroach bait, all you need is one part of powdered sugar mixed with three parts of boric acid. This is great bait as the sugar will lure them and once, they get lured; the boric acid will kill them. However, you yourself got to be a little careful with the boric acid. Although it is not that toxic to humans or to pets, still try to keep it in a space where your fingers and nose won’t reach easily.

Anyways, make sure you sprinkle this bait behind the stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, inside the cracks etc.

Over to you: Which is your favorite hack to prevent cockroaches in kitchen?

For me, my kitchen is the holiest place and I can’t bear the sight of seeing cockroaches in my kitchen. But, sadly these creepy pests love to stay with the humans and the dark, moist warm temperature of the kitchens give them the ideal conditions to thrive. Cockroaches are not just disgusting to look at but are often the bearer of germs. So if they stay around you, it is not much good for you and your family members. Hence, the faster you drive them away, the safer it will be for you.
