Not only do cockroaches bring about harmful diseases, they can also trigger an asthma or allergy with their saliva, faeces and shedding body parts. Cockroaches are capable of transferring Salmonella and E. Coli from one food source to another. This can result in fever, diarrhoea, abdominal cramps and headache. In serious cases, they may also be life threatening. Therefore, it is important to eliminate cockroaches and prevent a cockroach infestation, especially environments associated with food handling.
Bingo Pest is an expert in pest management and can help you get rid of your cockroach problems at home or commercial properties including office, cafes, restaurants, hotels and more. In this article, we share more information about how our professional cockroach control works and how we manage a cockroach infestation. The topics include:
DIY Cockroach Solutions vs Professional Cockroach Control
You might be wondering the reason and need for a professional cockroach control programme when DIY and over-the-shelf solutions are readily available. Although self-help cockroach solutions may cost less, they may have limited efficacy and residual effect against cockroaches. Most of the time, these solutions are only able to get rid of cockroaches on the surface.
On the other hand, cockroach treatments conducted by a pest control specialist targets the root cause of the infestation. The solutions used are specifically designed to eradicate live cockroaches including the nymphs, their harbourage areas and most importantly, their nest. Various cockroach treatment methods will be deployed during every service to maximise the treatment efficacy while targeting the different areas of infestation. For instance, conducting residual spraying to kill adult cockroaches and placing of baits or monitoring traps to keep track of the level of infestation.
