Cockroaches are one of the most common reasons people call us from Moorooka. They hide in warm, dark gaps near food and water, so kitchens, laundries and bathrooms are the usual trouble spots. We take your booking, give you upfront pricing and send a nearby independent crew to find where they are breeding and treat those areas.
There are two main kinds that show up in local homes. Large brown cockroaches often come in from drains, gardens and the roof, especially after summer storms. Small German cockroaches breed inside, behind fridges, dishwashers and cupboard hinges, and can build up quickly in units and townhouses. The crew we book will work out which kind you have, as the treatment is different for each.
- Gel baiting in cupboard hinges, behind appliances and in cracks
- Treatment of drains, sub-floors and wet areas where large cockroaches enter
- Roof void treatment where access allows
- Advice on food storage, crumbs and leaking taps
- A plan for a second visit if numbers are high
Units and older homes in Moorooka can share walls, pipes and bin rooms, which lets cockroaches move between neighbours. If you rent or live in a strata block, it can help to tell the building manager so other units can be looked at too. The crew can explain what signs to watch for over the next few weeks.
Before the visit, clear out the cupboard under the sink and wipe down the kitchen, but do not spray anything yourself, as that can scatter them. To get a price and book a crew, call 07 3543 7768 and tell us where you are seeing them.
