Cockroaches are a common partner to spider problems in Caboolture. They are food for many spiders, so a home with plenty of cockroaches often ends up with plenty of spiders too. Cockroach control is a popular add-on to spider bookings, and it can be booked as a job of its own.
Around Caboolture and the Moreton Bay area you will mostly see large outdoor cockroaches that wander in from gardens, drains, compost and roof spaces, along with the small brown cockroaches that breed in kitchens and bathrooms. The crew we book will look at where they are coming from and use gel baits inside with a spray treatment outside. Baits go into cupboard hinges, under sinks and behind appliances, while the outdoor treatment covers drains, weep holes, electricity boxes and garden edges. Tell us whether you are seeing big cockroaches coming in from outside or small ones in the kitchen, as that helps the crew bring the right baits and plan the visit.
- Gel baiting in kitchens, bathrooms and laundries
- Treatment behind the fridge, stove and dishwasher where reachable
- Outdoor spray around drains, weep holes and walls
- Roof void and subfloor treatment where needed
- Advice on food storage and cleaning habits
You can help the treatment along by wiping benches at night, storing food in sealed containers and not leaving pet food out overnight. Fix dripping taps and leaks under sinks, since cockroaches need water to survive. You may see a few more cockroaches in the days after baiting as they come out into the open, which is normal and usually settles down.
