Cockroaches turning up in a kitchen at night, around a bathroom drain or in the roof space are one of the more common calls we take for New Farm alongside ant trails. A sighting or two is usually worth a call before numbers build up, and the crew we book will look at where you are seeing them, check likely spots like under the sink, behind the fridge and around drains, and treat accordingly rather than working from a fixed list.
New Farm's older homes often have roof spaces, subfloors and drain lines that give cockroaches plenty of places to sit during the day before coming out at night, while units tend to see activity around kitchens, bin chutes and shared laundries. The crew checks the areas cockroaches use to move between these spots and treats the kitchen, bathroom, laundry and any roof or subfloor access points as part of the one visit, so the whole path is covered rather than just the room you first noticed them in.
Cockroaches breed quickly once a few take hold, so a job that looks small at first can build up within weeks if it is left. The crew treats cracks and gaps around skirting boards, cabinetry and pipe entries as well as the open areas you have already seen activity in, since these narrow gaps are often where most of the ongoing movement is actually coming from between one sighting and the next.
