How Does Heat Treatments for Cockroaches Work?

Heat treatments are proven to be effective against cockroach infestations. Cockroaches are cold-blooded insects, which means they cannot regulate their body temperature internally. When exposed to high temperatures, typically above 45°C (113°F), cockroaches can suffer from heat stress and eventually die. Heat treatments, such as using steam or hot air, can effectively eliminate cockroach infestations by raising the temperature to levels that are lethal to them. These methods are often used in conjunction with other pest control measures to ensure comprehensive eradication. However, it’s essential to note that the success of heat treatments depends on factors like the duration and intensity of heat exposure and the specific species of cockroach being targeted.
