Cockroaches and spiders often go hand in hand. Where there are plenty of cockroaches, spiders have more to eat, so treating one without the other can leave you with the same problem a few months later. Cockroach control is a common add-on to spider jobs in North Lakes, and it can be booked on its own as well.
Around South East Queensland you will mostly see large outdoor cockroaches that come in from gardens, drains and roof spaces, along with the smaller brown cockroaches that live in kitchens and bathrooms. The crew we book will look at where they are coming from and use a mix of gel baits inside and a spray outside. Baits go into cupboard hinges, behind appliances and under sinks, while the outdoor treatment targets drains, weep holes, garden edges and electricity boxes. If you have seen cockroaches in the roof space or coming up through floor drains, mention it when you book so the crew brings what they need.
- Gel baiting in kitchens, bathrooms and laundries
- Treatment behind the fridge, dishwasher and stove where reachable
- Outdoor spray around drains, weep holes and walls
- Roof void treatment where cockroaches are found
- Tips on food storage and cleaning to cut down numbers
You can help the treatment along by wiping benches at night, keeping food in sealed containers and not leaving pet food out overnight. Fix dripping taps, as cockroaches need water. You may see more cockroaches for a few days after baiting as they come out, which is normal and usually settles down.
