Sometimes you are not sure what you are dealing with. You might have spotted one cockroach, found droppings in an old cupboard, or be moving into a new unit and want to check it first. A cockroach inspection is a good starting point, and we book them across Brisbane with an upfront price.
The crew we book goes room by room with a torch and a mirror. They look in the places cockroaches like to hide, and they look for signs as well as live insects. Droppings, egg cases, shed skins and a musty smell all tell them how long the cockroaches have been there and how many there might be. Night-time activity is also worth mentioning when you book, since it helps the crew plan where to look first.
- Kitchen cupboards, hinges, the pantry and behind appliances
- Bathroom vanities, floor wastes and around the toilet base
- Laundry tubs, the washing machine space and the hot water unit
- Wall gaps, switch plates and the roof space if it can be reached
- Outside drains, bins, garden beds and the subfloor on houses
At the end, the crew tells you what they found, which type of cockroach is present, where they are breeding and what they would suggest. If treatment is needed, they can usually go ahead on the same visit once you agree to the price. If they find very little, they will tell you so, and point out any gaps or leaks worth fixing to keep it that way.
Inspections suit renters, new owners, people moving into a unit and anyone who has seen a cockroach and wants to catch the problem early. Call 07 3543 7765 to book a cockroach inspection in Brisbane.
