Where Do Roaches Hide in Bedroom?
The bedroom is full of dead skin and hair that many people often overlook. Underneath dressers and inside closets are popular hiding spots for roaches, as it offers shelter and food – as long as you don't clean those places.

Why would roaches be in my bedroom?

Unkempt Room

Leaving your bedroom unkempt is often what attracts cockroaches and other bugs. The clutter in your room provides ample space for cockroaches to hide and lay their eggs. You may even find egg sacks (ootheca) in your wardrobe or corners of the closet.

How do you lure a cockroach out of hiding?

The most effective lures will be:

  1. Scented. Bait traps have a tempting artificial smell that draws roaches out of hiding.
  2. Mixed with food. Some traps require you to place your own bait, which is usually starch-heavy or sweet.
  3. Placed near food.
