What a technician typically checks
A technician typically identifies the species, inspects kitchens, bathrooms, appliances, plumbing gaps and drains, and then explains baiting, treatment and sealing options.
Before the visit
Clean up crumbs and grease, fix leaks, take out trash at night, and avoid bug bombs, which can drive roaches deeper into walls.
Frequently asked questions
Why are there roaches in a clean home?
Cockroaches need water and shelter more than mess. Leaks, gaps around pipes and items brought in from outside can all lead to an infestation.
Do cockroaches spread between apartments?
Yes. They travel through shared walls and plumbing, so multi-unit buildings often need coordinated treatment.
How long does cockroach treatment take?
It depends on the species and the size of the infestation. Follow-up visits are common.
