German & American roaches · kitchens, bathrooms, apartments
Cockroach exterminator near you
If you are seeing roaches in daylight there are a great many more you aren’t seeing. Call and we put you through to a local company that baits the harborages instead of spraying the ones that run across the counter.

Is this what you have?
The signs
- Live roaches in daylight — usually a sign of a crowded population
- Dark pepper-like droppings in cabinets, drawers or behind appliances
- Small brown egg cases behind the fridge, stove or under the sink
- A musty, oily smell in the kitchen or bathroom
- Smear marks along the wall at floor level
- Shed skins in cabinet corners and along the plumbing
Heads up. Foggers and bug bombs push roaches into the wall voids and next door, and leave residue on every surface. Gel bait in the right places is what actually works.
On the day
What the technician does
- Inspection
Behind and under the appliances, inside cabinets, along plumbing runs and into wall voids — where they live and how bad it is.
- Gel bait
Placed into cracks and harborages. Roaches feed and carry it back, which reaches the ones you never see.
- Residual treatment
Baseboards, pipe entries and voids, for the individuals that don’t take bait.
- Growth regulator, then a follow-up
An insect growth regulator stops eggs and young from maturing. A heavy infestation normally needs two or three visits a few weeks apart.
Practical
Getting ready, and what it runs
Preparation
Empty and wipe the kitchen cabinets, clear under the sink, and get food into sealed containers. Fix the dripping faucet — roaches need water more than food.
One visit or ongoing
A light problem is often done in one or two visits. Apartments, restaurants and repeat cases usually go onto a monthly or quarterly service.
What moves the price
- Species — German roaches are the hard ones
- Size of the property and how far it has spread
- How many visits it takes
- Whether neighboring units need treating too
Questions
Cockroaches — questions we get a lot
Who do I call for roaches?
Call (833) 784-1375 and we connect you with a local cockroach control company.
I only saw one. Does that mean an infestation?
Possibly. They are nocturnal and hide well, so one in daylight often means a crowded population behind the cabinets.
How quickly does it work?
Gel bait starts killing within one to three days. Getting on top of a serious infestation usually takes two or three treatments.
How do I stop them coming back?
Food in sealed containers, dry sinks, cleaned appliance gaps, sealed pipe penetrations. Your technician will leave a short checklist.
