Remember these Cockroach Control Tips

Eliminate food sources

Store dry foods in tightly sealed containers or in sealed plastic bags and do not leave food sitting out on counters. Do not leave liquids in sinks or buckets.

Clear all waste food and liquid spillage

Clean up food debris from food preparation areas, under sinks and appliances. Empty the rubbish on a daily basis and keep all garbage or compost in sealed bins

Clean exterior drains regularly

This is where cockroaches breed. The council is obligated to treat municipal drains outside your property, but not those within the walls of your residence. Rentokil offers a specialised drain treatment service so that you don’t have to get your hands dirty.

Seal entry points

Deny access to cockroaches. Key risks are gaps around pipes, drains and common walls with neighbouring properties when dealing with German, Oriental and American cockroaches. Even tiny cracks around skirting boards and behind electrical sockets should be plugged to reduce potential hiding areas.

Professional cockroach control can provide a long-term solution to your problem and prevent an infestation in the future.Contact Rentokil for an effective and reliable solution to any cockroach infestation.
