Cockroach

Cockroaches have survived for thousands of years, so you may be wondering what hope your home or business has against them. While they don’t bite, it’s essential to control them due to their health risks. Roaches can contaminate your food and spaces, spread bacteria and diseases like salmonella, cholera, dysentery, and even aggravate allergies and asthma.

Here’s what you need to know about roaches and the most effective strategies for managing infestations and preventing future ones.

Common cockroach species in North Carolina.

Each one presents unique challenges—such as preferred habitats, lifespan and egg-laying capabilities—but our expert pest specialists can tailor an approach to effectively manage and eliminate each type.

Popular D.I.Y. ways to get rid of cockroaches.

In addition to store-bought baits and traps, there are two main DIY methods to try to deal with roach infestations:

  • Borax powder: Using a light application of borax powder in areas where you see activity can kill them if they ingest it.
  • Pesticidal soap or fabric softener sprays: Mixing soaps or fabric softener with water in a spray bottle can be used to try to spot-kill roaches (spraying this around the space won’t prevent them, though).

While these methods may offer temporary relief, they often fall short of eliminating infestations. For comprehensive results, consult a pest control expert.

How to keep cockroaches out of your North Carolina home or business.

While there are measures you can take to help cut down on their numbers—such as sealing gaps, keeping your space clean, removing excess vegetation outside, and fixing leaks—you shouldn’t be surprised if you still see roaches with how persistent they are. To truly control and prevent cockroaches inside, you need an expert approach.

Why it’s best to get professional help for cockroaches.

As part of our custom process, you’ll get the exact treatment methods to keep you protected. Here’s how:

  • First, we’ll complete a thorough inspection of your property to determine the extent of your infestation, as well as pinpoint common cockroach entry and exit points.
  • From there, we’ll create an Integrated Pest Management strategy that will eliminate any current infestations while preventing future ones with minimally invasive methods.
  • We’ll then treat the perimeter of your property, ensuring cockroaches and other common pests like ants, beetles, spiders, silverfish and more don’t get the chance to enter.
  • Once we eliminate your existing cockroach infestation, we’ll return to regularly treat and inspect your property to ensure you enjoy long-term relief.
