Cockroaches are one of the most common pests we book for Chermside homes after ants. Small German cockroaches tend to live inside, around the fridge, dishwasher, stove and kitchen cupboards, while the large American and Australian cockroaches come in from drains, gardens and roof spaces, especially on warm, humid nights. You tell us what you are seeing and we book a nearby independent crew to treat it.
The crew we book checks the places cockroaches hide during the day: behind and under appliances, in cupboard hinges, around the hot water system, in drains and in the roof void. They use gel baits in kitchens and bathrooms, dust or spray in wall and roof spaces where needed, and treat outside entry points so fewer cockroaches find their way in.
- Kitchen cupboards, pantries and behind appliances
- Bathrooms, laundries and around drains
- Roof voids, wall cavities and subfloors
- Garages, sheds and outdoor bin areas
- Entry points around doors, pipes and weep holes
Homes and units across Chermside can pick up cockroaches from shared drains, neighbouring properties or cardboard deliveries, so it is not a sign that your home is dirty. The crew explains what they are treating and how you can help, such as fixing dripping taps and keeping food sealed. German cockroaches in particular breed quickly, so a few sightings in a kitchen can turn into a bigger problem in a few weeks. Getting the treatment booked early, and keeping the kitchen clear of crumbs and grease afterwards, gives the baits a clear run at the colony, because the cockroaches have little else to feed on.
You get upfront pricing over the phone before anyone is booked. Ants and cockroaches can be booked in the same visit if you are seeing both. Call 07 3543 7769 to book cockroach control.
