Cockroach Control in Niagara

Signs of cockroaches

• Cockroaches seen at night in kitchens or bathrooms, scattering when the light comes on
• Small dark droppings that look like pepper or coffee grounds
• Egg cases behind appliances, under sinks or in cabinets
• A musty odour in heavier infestations

What treatment usually involves

A provider identifies the species and finds where cockroaches are hiding, often in warm, damp spots near kitchens and plumbing. Treatment usually uses targeted gel baits and other products in those areas, with follow-up visits. In apartment buildings, treating neighbouring units at the same time works best.

Prevention tips

• Keep counters, floors and appliances free of crumbs and grease
• Fix leaky taps and pipes, and don't leave standing water
• Seal gaps around plumbing and in cabinets
• Take out garbage regularly and use lidded bins

When to call

Call as soon as you see cockroaches. They multiply quickly and are much easier to clear early.
