Cockroaches are the pest we hear about most in Keperra. Warm weather, gardens and busy kitchens all give them plenty to work with. If you are seeing them at night on the bench, finding small droppings in drawers or noticing a musty smell in cupboards, it is time to book a treatment. Call us, describe what you are seeing and we will give you upfront pricing.
There are two main groups in Brisbane homes. Small German cockroaches live indoors, breed quickly and hide in the warm gaps behind fridges, dishwashers and microwaves. Larger cockroaches usually come in from drains, gardens and subfloors. The crew we book works out which one you have, because the treatment is different for each.
- Gel baits placed in hinges, cracks and appliance gaps
- Growth inhibitors that stop young cockroaches from breeding
- Surface spray around drains, skirting boards and entry points
- Outside treatment of eaves, drains and garden edges for the larger kinds
- A plan for a second visit if numbers are heavy
In townhouses, cockroaches can move between units through shared walls and pipes. If neighbours are seeing them too, it helps if the body corporate arranges a treatment of the common areas. Inside your own home, empty the cupboards under the sink and clear the benches before the visit so the crew can reach every gap.
Bait works well when it is the only food around, so keep crumbs down and rinse dishes each night for a few weeks after. To book cockroach control in Keperra, call 07 3543 7768 and we will book a local team for you.
