Control of cockroaches is an on-going headache in many public housing buildings. Making matters worse, recent research finds that roaches are the source of potent, pervasive and persistent allergens – chemicals that can trigger asthma attacks in people who are sensitive to them.Asthma rates have increased dramatically over the past twenty years and asthma is now a major public health concern, especially for children. By getting rid of roaches and cleaning up their debris, which contains the allergens, we can help people with asthma.
