General pest control
Cockroach control
Cockroaches hide in warm, dark gaps close to food and water, so the ones you see are usually a small part of what is there. Treatment targets where they are living, not just where they are seen.
Where they hide
Kitchens
Behind and under fridges, ovens and dishwashers, and inside cupboard hinges and corners.
Bathrooms and laundries
Around drains, pipes, vanities and anywhere that stays damp.
Wall cavities and roof spaces
Gaps around pipes and wiring give them a way through the building.
Outside
Drains, garden beds, mulch and stored items close to the house.
Signs of cockroaches
Seeing them at night
Cockroaches are mostly active in the dark. Seeing one in daylight can point to a larger problem.
Droppings
Small dark specks, like ground pepper, in drawers, cupboards and corners.
Egg cases
Small brown capsules tucked into gaps and the backs of cupboards.
A musty smell
A stale, oily odour in cupboards or enclosed spaces.
Help keep them away
Seal up food
Keep food and pet food in sealed containers and do not leave dishes out overnight.
Fix drips and leaks
Cockroaches need water. Leaking taps and damp cupboards help them thrive.
Clean behind appliances
Crumbs and grease build up where they are hard to see.
Close gaps
Seal gaps around pipes and cables where they enter walls and cupboards.
