What To Look For

Signs You Have a Roach Problem

Activity at nightSeeing a roach in daylight, in the open, usually means an overcrowded colony is pushing members out to forage.

Small dark droppingsResembling coffee grounds or black pepper, usually found near cabinets, under sinks, or behind appliances.

A musty, oily odorA persistent smell near the kitchen or bathroom, especially in cabinets, is a common sign of an established colony.

Egg capsules (oothecae)Small brown capsules tucked into cracks, corners, or behind appliances — each one holds a dozen or more roaches.

Our Approach

How We Treat Roaches

01

Inspect

We identify the species and trace activity back to entry points and likely nesting areas — kitchens, bathrooms, wall voids.

02

Treat The Source

Targeted gel baiting and residual treatment applied where roaches actually live and breed, not just where they're seen.

03

Seal & Prevent

We flag moisture sources and entry gaps that invite roaches back in, so the problem doesn't just reset in a few weeks.

04

Follow-Up

Ongoing bimonthly service keeps pressure on any remaining activity and catches new activity before it becomes a colony.

Common Questions

Roach Control FAQ

How do I know if I have a roach problem or just saw one roach?
One roach at night is rarely a coincidence — they avoid open, lit areas unless a colony nearby is overcrowded. Other signs include small dark droppings resembling coffee grounds, a musty odor near cabinets or appliances, and egg capsules in cracks or corners.
Why do I still see roaches after using store-bought spray or traps?
Store-bought products kill what they touch but rarely reach the nest itself. Roaches breed in wall voids, under appliances, and behind baseboards — areas a surface spray never reaches. Our treatment targets the source colony, not just visible activity.
Are German roaches different from American roaches?
Yes. German roaches are smaller, reproduce faster, and stay indoors near kitchens and bathrooms. American roaches are larger, often come in from outside through drains or plumbing gaps, and prefer damp areas like garages. Both require different treatment approaches, which is why a proper inspection matters.
