Cockroaches are, unfortunately, the most frequent household pest throughout Canada. Cockroaches invade homes because of their abundance of food, shelter, and moisture. It is why cockroaches out of all rooms and places in a building choose the kitchen to nest and to thrive. Dishwashers sinks, and any kind of electrical kitchen appliances that give them the warmth and safety that they were looking for is a perfect place for them to stay long-term. Unfortunately, that appliance also includes the trusty microwave where almost or even all of our food is warmed up, prepared, and made.

Cockroaches are very agile insects by nature, and this can be proven by how little space they need to go through a hole, crevice, or gap which makes them so challenging to deal with. When cockroaches are in your microwave, the reaction can be somewhat described as terrifying as if cockroaches in your kitchen were not enough. Because cockroaches are attracted to heat and moisture, they also house themselves in numerous other appliances such as toasters, toaster-ovens, and even in wall sockets as it gives the cockroach an ample amount of warmth.
