The first step in
eliminating your German cockroach problem is determining what type of cockroaches you have in your house. We handle normal cockroaches differently than we do German cockroaches, so your course of treatment will depend on what kind of infestation you have.
For normal cockroaches, we’ll perform an interior inspection looking for smudging and oothecae. Smudging is a sign of a large infestation, and oothecae are the shell-like egg casings that cockroaches hatch from. Our inspection for normal cockroaches does not include crawl spaces, but we can inspect nearby trees up to eight feet high to look for wood roaches.
For German cockroaches, we perform a much more invasive inspection. We will inspect your kitchen, under and behind appliances, water heaters, and more. We’ll also set out traps to try to catch them at night since they are nocturnal.
