Cockroaches are one of the most common pest calls we get from Albany Creek, especially through the warmer, humid months when numbers build up quickly around kitchens, bathrooms and laundries. They come in chasing food scraps, grease and moisture, and once a few get inside they tend to spread into wall cavities, behind appliances and under sinks where they are hard to reach without a proper look at the property. A few roaches spotted at night is often a sign of a larger number hiding during the day in wall voids, under appliances or inside cupboard hinges, which is why a general spray around the kitchen bench on its own does not usually sort out the problem.
When you call 07 3543 7771, we take down where you have seen activity and book a local crew to treat the property. The crew checks the usual hotspots first, including under the fridge and stove, inside cupboards, behind skirting boards and around drains, before treating the areas where cockroaches are breeding rather than just where they were spotted. Treatment usually covers cracks and crevices, skirting boards, cupboard corners and the gaps around pipework under sinks, since this is where cockroaches lay eggs and shelter during the day.
- Kitchens, pantries and food preparation areas
- Behind fridges, stoves and other appliances
- Bathrooms, laundries and drain areas
- Roof voids and subfloor spaces
- Wall cavities and skirting boards
Homes across Albany Creek see cockroach activity pick up from spring through to autumn, and older properties with gaps around pipework tend to see more of it. Call 07 3543 7771 to book a local crew and get on top of a cockroach problem before it spreads further through the house.
