Cockroaches are the next most common pest we book for North Lakes homes after ants. Small German cockroaches live inside, around the fridge, dishwasher, stove and kitchen cupboards, and they breed quickly. The larger American and Australian cockroaches come in from drains, gardens, roof spaces and garages, 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 where cockroaches hide during the day: behind and under appliances, inside 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 roof and wall spaces where needed, and treat outside entry points so fewer cockroaches find their way inside from the yard.
- Kitchen cupboards, pantries and behind appliances
- Bathrooms, laundries and floor drains
- Roof voids and wall cavities
- Garages, sheds and outdoor bin areas
- Entry points around doors, pipes and weep holes
New homes and townhouses in North Lakes still get cockroaches. They arrive in cardboard boxes and deliveries, move between homes that share walls, and come up through drains. It is not a sign that the home is dirty. The crew explains what they are treating and what helps afterwards, such as fixing dripping taps, keeping food sealed and not leaving pet food out overnight. Townhouses that share walls can pass cockroaches back and forth, so it helps to tell your neighbours if you are booking a treatment, as a joint approach tends to hold the numbers down for longer.
You get upfront pricing over the phone before anyone is booked. Ants and cockroaches can be treated in the same visit if you are seeing both. Call 07 3543 7768 to book cockroach control.
