The cockroach’s cryptic nature, which include being most active at night, the ability to scurry away from danger and suddenly disappear on ledges, and to survive on anything available for them to feed on, contributed much to their importance as pests of both residential kitchens and commercial establishments. People often find it difficult to imagine where cockroaches go when they are out of sight. Voids and hollow spaces in and behind kitchen appliances would quickly come to mind. But do you know that the extra often unused and…

In line with our commitment to human and environmental safety, Bio-Tech Environmental introduces another first in the Philippine pest control industry!
