Hot, humid summers in Caboolture suit cockroaches perfectly. The small brown German cockroach lives in kitchens, breeding in the warm spots behind the fridge, around the dishwasher and inside cupboard hinges. The bigger American and Australian cockroaches live outside in drains, garden beds, woodpiles and under highset homes, and they wander in at night through gaps under doors and around pipes.
When you call, we ask how big the cockroaches are and where you see them, because each type needs a different approach. For kitchen infestations, the crew we book places a gel bait in cracks and hinges where cockroaches hide, and may use a light spray in hard-to-reach voids. For the larger outdoor cockroaches, they treat the roof void, drains, subfloor, eaves and the outside walls where the insects shelter and move in.
Kitchen baits work over a week or two as cockroaches feed and carry the bait back to their hiding places. Seeing a few during that time is normal. Leave the bait in place, avoid spraying your own products over it and keep benches clear of crumbs so the bait is the easiest food around. Rental homes and backyard studios with shared plumbing can also be treated at the same visit if you mention them.
