Cockroaches are one of the most common reasons people in North Lakes pick up the phone. Small German cockroaches breed quickly in kitchens, around the fridge, dishwasher and pantry. Larger cockroaches tend to live outside, in drains, garden beds and roof spaces, and wander inside at night. Each type needs a slightly different approach, so we ask what size they are and where you see them when you call.
The crew we book looks for where the cockroaches are hiding during the day, which is often behind appliances, inside cupboard hinges, under sinks and in gaps around pipes. For German cockroaches, they usually place a bait gel in these spots and may add a targeted spray. For larger outdoor cockroaches, they treat the roof void, drains, eaves and the outside of the home to stop them coming back through the same gaps.
A bad kitchen infestation can take a couple of weeks to settle as the bait works through the colony, so you may still see a few in the days after the visit. Keep benches clear, store food in sealed containers and avoid spraying your own products over the bait, since that can put cockroaches off feeding. Rental homes, units and townhouses often share walls, so mention it if neighbours have the same problem.
