Are There Roaches in Your Home?

Roaches are nocturnal pests that like to hide during the day and come out at night to look for food and water. They are also very good at staying hidden, so it's not uncommon for people to not know they have a roach problem until it's too late.

 

Roaches like to nest in dark, secluded places where they can find food and water. They are often found in kitchens and bathrooms, in basements, and in crawl spaces. Roaches can also nest inside wall voids and inside cabinets.

Our technicians will conduct a thorough inspection of your property to locate roach nests and eggs. Once we've identified the problem, we'll develop a customized treatment plan to eliminate the infestation.

What Causes a Roach Infestation?

Roaches are normally drawn to warm, humid environments such as kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. Any source of moisture can contribute to a roach infestation, so keep an eye on leaks or any areas where water pools.

They are also attracted to food sources, so be careful about leaving food out or letting crumbs stay on the counter.

Additionally, clutter and debris create a great place for roaches to hide and breed.

Our Roach Control Methods

We employ a range of methods to take care of your roach problem.

Our standard approach is to apply insecticides and bait traps. Our team is careful to use the appropriate amount of insecticide. Some exterminators use too much. Doing so can allow roaches to build a tolerance to the poison, making it less effective over time.

Roaches are tricky pests. Relying on one method too heavily won’t take care of an infestation. Our team uses chemical and non-chemical solutions to control roaches.

We can thoroughly inspect the affected area. By taking this step, we can identify the specific roach species and the extent of the infestation. This process allows us to take a targeted approach tailored to your specific needs.

We Can Help Keep Roaches Away

We do more than just handle roaches when they are already a problem. Our team can keep them from coming back, and we can help prevent such infestations from ever occurring.

Our trained pest control technicians can seal any cracks or gaps in your home's foundation and walls. The step helps prevent roaches from entering in the first place.

Additionally, we can install insect screens and provide regular maintenance. During our maintenance visits, we may use some of the same methods. This time, however, we are keeping the environment uninhabitable for roaches and their eggs rather than fighting to stop an out-of-control problem.
