Australian Cockroach Pest Control

The Australian cockroach is a reddish-brown insect, typically measuring around 1.25 inches in length. These nocturnal creatures are attracted to warm and humid environments, making kitchens and bathrooms ideal habitats. While they prefer outdoor habitats like gardens and mulch, they won’t hesitate to invade indoor spaces in search of food and shelter.

Australian cockroaches may not have the same notoriety as their larger counterparts, but these resilient insects can quickly become a nuisance in any household or workplace. At Green Pesty, we understand the urgency of eliminating these unwelcome guests efficiently and effectively. You can rely on our fully trained and equipped team to remove cockroaches and prevent future infestations.

How to Get Rid of Australian Cockroach Infestations

There are several ways to remove Australian cockroach nymph and adult infestations, including:

• Sealing entry points – Conduct a thorough inspection to identify and seal any cracks or crevices that serve as entry points.
• Maintaining cleanliness – Maintain a clean environment by regularly vacuuming, sweeping and wiping down surfaces to remove crumbs and spills that attract cockroaches.
• Reducing moisture – Fix leaks and ensure proper ventilation to minimise moisture, as Australian cockroaches thrive in humid conditions.

How to Kill Australian Cockroach Nymphs & Adults

Methods to kill Australian cockroaches include:

• Insecticides – Insecticides labelled for cockroach control can be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Focus on areas where cockroaches congregate, such as cracks and baseboards.
• Baits – Use cockroach baits containing active ingredients like fipronil. Place baits in strategic locations where cockroaches are likely to encounter them.
• Traps – Set up sticky traps to capture wandering cockroaches and monitor the effectiveness of your control efforts.

If DIY methods prove ineffective, seeking out the services of a professional like Green Pesty can help to effectively eradicate Australian cockroaches.
