Cockroach FAQ
How can I prevent cockroaches from coming back?
Regular cleaning, sealing food properly, fixing leaks, decluttering, and scheduling routine pest control services can prevent reinfestations.
Why do I still see cockroaches after treatment?
It’s normal to see increased activity for a few days after treatment as roaches come out of hiding. The treatment works over time to eliminate the entire infestation.
Do cockroaches only come out at night?
Yes, cockroaches are nocturnal. If you see them during the day, it usually means the infestation is severe, as they’re forced to look for food due to overcrowding.
Can I get rid of cockroaches with DIY methods?
While home remedies like boric acid or baking soda may kill some cockroaches, they won’t eliminate a full infestation. Professional pest control is the most reliable way to remove them completely.
How long does it take to get rid of a cockroach infestation?
Depending on the severity, it can take a few days to a few weeks. A single treatment may work for minor infestations, but severe cases may require follow-up visits.
