Cockroaches like warm, damp spots close to food and water, which usually means kitchens, bathrooms, under sinks and around hot water systems. In Goodna, older homes with subfloor plumbing and units with shared walls both tend to see more activity, especially through the warmer, more humid months.
The crew we book starts with a look around the kitchen, bathroom, laundry and roof void to find where cockroaches are hiding during the day, checking behind appliances, under sinks, around pipe penetrations and inside wall cavities where possible. Treatment is placed into these gaps and cracks rather than sprayed openly across benches and floors. Roof voids and electricity boxes on the outside of the house are checked too, since these are common spots for a larger cockroach population to build up out of sight.
A gel or dust treatment placed directly into harbourage spots tends to work through a cockroach population over the days and weeks after treatment, rather than only dealing with what is out and moving on the day of the visit. This is why a return check is worth booking, to see whether activity has dropped off or another treatment is needed in a stubborn spot. Sightings during the day rather than only at night can be a sign of a larger population and are worth mentioning when you call 07 3543 7768.
