4. Bathrooms As with kitchens, bathrooms provide a lot of the plumbing and moisture cockroaches prefer. Unlike kitchens, however, bathrooms don't contain food, but they do have something else that roaches love: residues from soaps and grooming products, discarded paper tissues and skin and hair sheddings. One good thing about the love of bathrooms and kitchens is that many cockroach species don't travel beyond these two rooms of the house.
Do you know what attracts roaches and where they're likely to hide? Because you definitely don't want them in your home. Cockroaches have an almost Transformer-like capability to scuttle, fly, walk upside down and flatten their crunchy bodies before disappearing into sliver-thin crevices.
