Cockroaches are one of the most common reasons people in Stafford call us. The small German cockroach lives inside, usually around the fridge, dishwasher, stove and kitchen cupboards, and it breeds quickly once it settles in. The larger American cockroach tends to come in from drains, gardens and subfloors, especially after summer storms. Both kinds need a different approach, so we ask which one you are seeing when you ring.
The crew we book looks at where the cockroaches are hiding during the day. That often means the hinges of cupboard doors, the gaps behind appliances, the motor space under the fridge and the edges of the pantry. Inside, they usually use a gel bait placed in small dots in these spots, plus other treatments where needed. Outside, they treat drains, weep holes, the base of the walls and garden beds close to the house.

In a unit or townhouse, cockroaches often travel between homes through shared walls and plumbing, so it helps to tell us if your neighbours have the same problem. The crew may suggest a second visit for a heavy German cockroach problem, and they will explain why before anything else is booked. Keep the benches clear and the bins closed in the weeks after the visit so the bait has less competition.
