Cockroaches are the most common reason people in Mount Gravatt pick up the phone to us. The warm, humid months bring German cockroaches out from behind fridges and dishwashers, while the larger American and Australian cockroaches wander in from gardens, drains and the roof space after summer storms. Tell us which kind you are seeing, how many and in which rooms, and we pass that detail on.
The crew we book focuses on the places cockroaches shelter during the day. That means hinges on cupboard doors, the gap behind the oven, the motor space under the fridge, and cracks around sinks and pipes. Gel baits are placed in small dots where the insects travel, and a dust or spray may be used in wall voids, subfloors or outside around drains. The crew will also point out gaps under doors or around pipes where cockroaches are getting in.

Baits take a little time to work through a colony, so you may see a few more cockroaches for a week or two before numbers drop away. It helps to clean benches and floors, store food in sealed containers and fix dripping taps, as damp and crumbs are what keep them coming back. In shared unit blocks, speaking with neighbours about booking at the same time can make a real difference.
You are given the price before the crew arrives. Call 07 3543 7770 to book cockroach control in Mount Gravatt, and we will find a time that works around your household.
