Cockroaches

Cockroaches are gross, and we are sure that everyone would agree. This scavenging insect lives in most households. Feeding on virtually anything from leftover food scraps to cardboard and fabrics. Predominantly nocturnal this horrible little pest is often found in damp dark areas and hiding in cracks and crevices around the home. The cockroach is known to carry bacteria and trigger allergies and asthma. There are many different species of cockroach common in our area being the Australia Cockroach, German Cockroach, American Cockroach, Brown Banded Cockroach and Smoky Brown Cockroach. Each cockroach species takes a different treatment method to control them, so it is very important to identify the species before treatment. Leaving this pest untreated can mean an out of control infestation in only a matter of a few weeks.
