Cockroaches

I suppose you’ve heard about cockroaches being the only surviving insects after a nuclear blast! We don’t know for sure, but we do know that cockroaches are bad news. For food businesses, they can be terrible news. Still, there’s plenty that can be done. The main thing is to act quickly.

Some cockroaches live for a long time, some live for a short time. Some reproduce quickly, others slowly. Some hide deep inside building foundations, others prefer the microwave oven. There’s something for everyone with cockroaches.

We have lots of experience with cockroaches, we know about the different types of cockroach, where to find them and what treatments work best, which is of course quite reassuring, seeing as we are in the pest control business!

Several treatments are usually needed when dealing with cockroaches. If the infestation is well established, you may find you need a series of treatments at regular intervals. Food businesses must be prepared for the horror that are cockroaches, so regular treatment and/or monitoring will be the order of the day. Please ring us for more information.
