Saskatoon residents may not think of bug infestations as a common problem, but over the past few years there’s one creepy crawler that is making its presence known.
“We see cockroaches everywhere,” says Sayful Ahmed, owner of Bye Bye Cockroach.
This extermination company has been dealing with an increasing number of calls to apartments, houses and businesses from residents concerned about an infestation.
“In the last two to three years, it’s increased drastically. Like everywhere you go,” he says.
Ahmed posts videos of the bugs on his business’ Facebook page.
The most commonly seen cockroach in western Canada is the German cockroach. They can tolerate temperatures as low as -10 but tend to stay indoors, he says.
“They are small but tough ones. They can survive any kind of weather conditions,” he says.
