Why Cockroaches Choose Your Utility Room
Cockroaches are attracted to heat and moisture. Utility rooms often provide both, especially around water heaters. Here are some reasons why these pests might invade:
- Warm environment from the water heater
- Moisture from leaks or condensation
- Food sources from nearby storage

Identifying an infestation early can save you time and money. Look for these signs:
