Cockroach control is the job most people call us about in New Farm. Maybe you turned on the bathroom light and saw a big cockroach on the wall, or you keep finding small ones in the kitchen no matter how much you clean. Either way, you want them gone and you want to stop more coming in. When you ring, we ask a few questions, give you an upfront price and book a nearby independent pest crew.
Good control has two parts. The first is dealing with the cockroaches already living in your home. The second is making it harder for new ones to arrive. The crew we book begins by working out which type you have, where they are hiding and how they are getting in, and then plans the treatment around that.
- Gel bait in hinges, corners and appliance gaps for indoor cockroaches
- Dust in wall voids, under vanities and in the roof space
- A targeted spray around drains, doors and the outside of the home
- A look under the house on Queenslanders and older cottages
- Advice on proofing gaps, drains and doors
In the first week or two you may see cockroaches out in the open or lying on their backs near doors. That is a sign the treatment is reaching them. Leave the bait dots in place, keep food sealed and do not use your own sprays near treated areas. If activity keeps going after three weeks, call and we will talk through what to do next. Many homes in the area settle after one visit, while older unit blocks with a long-running problem may need a second one a few weeks later.
Visits across New Farm, Teneriffe, the Valley and nearby suburbs are same-day or next-day where the run allows. Call 07 3543 7765 to book cockroach control.
