Cockroaches in the Kitchen? Do This First
Seen cockroaches in your Pacific Pines kitchen at night? For every one you see, many more are hiding.
These steps help the treatment reach them.
-
1
Stop spraying
Sprays contaminate the bait and push cockroaches deeper into walls.
-
2
Clean up crumbs and grease
Wipe benches and stovetops, and empty the kitchen bin at night.
-
3
Fix leaks
Dripping taps and damp cupboards give cockroaches water.
-
4
Clear under the sinks
Empty the cupboards so we can bait along the pipes and hinges.
-
Then call us on 07 3916 7673. Answered day and night, with same day visits on most days.

German cockroaches breed inside, behind fridges, dishwashers and cupboard hinges.
"A big one flew at me"
American and Australian cockroaches fly on warm nights and come in from outside.
"Black pepper marks in the cupboard"
Droppings and smear marks show where cockroaches shelter.
"A musty, oily smell"
Heavy infestations give off a stale smell in cupboards and drawers.

Brown, capsule-shaped cases mean breeding is happening inside.

Large cockroaches travel through drains and stormwater pipes.

Pricing
Cockroach Control Prices in Pacific Pines
A unit kitchen is a short job. A busy cafe or a heavy German cockroach problem takes more. These things set the price.
What sets the price
-
Species. German cockroaches need a program with follow-ups.
-
How heavy it is. Long-running problems need more bait and time.
-

How much does cockroach control cost in Pacific Pines?
It depends on the species, how heavy the problem is and the size of the property. You get the price before any work starts.
Is the treatment safe for my family?
Gel baits go into cracks and hinges, out of sight and reach. Outside barriers are kept to entry points and walls. Keep children and pets off treated surfaces until dry.
Why am I seeing more after the treatment?
For a few days, cockroaches come out of hiding as the products take effect. If you are still seeing live ones after three weeks, call us.
Can you treat my whole unit block?
Yes. Treating the whole block, or at least neighbouring units, gives the best result because German cockroaches move through shared walls.
Do you treat cafes and restaurants?
Yes. We work around service hours, use food-area friendly methods and provide service records.
