American cockroaches are also known as palmetto bugs. These roaches are large, measuring between 1 ¼ to 2 ⅛ inches long. They have reddish-brown bodies with a yellowish figure-eight pattern on their heads. American cockroaches are commonly found in basements, sewers, and drains. They prefer warm, moist environments and can quickly infest your home if not controlled.
German cockroaches are small, light brown, and have two dark stripes on their backs. They reproduce quickly, so prompt action is crucial. Our treatment plan includes an insect growth regulator to stop reproduction. We also apply granular treatments to other cockroach species. Before service preparation is requred: customers need to clean thoroughly and remove food sources.
Due to their size and color, brown-banded cockroaches are often mistaken for German cockroaches. They prefer warmer areas, usually found in higher locations like ceilings, inside cabinets, and behind picture frames. Unlike other cockroach species, brown-banded cockroaches don’t need much moisture to survive, making them harder to control with standard treatments.
Oriental cockroaches are dark brown to black and measure around one inch long. They are often found in damp areas like basements, crawl spaces, and under sinks. They can spread bacteria and cause health issues. Our pest control team is trained to locate and eliminate these roaches quickly and effectively.
Turkestan cockroaches, which are reddish-brown and can be found indoors and outdoors, are a growing concern in our area. These pests thrive in warm climates and are often seen around lights at night. They can quickly invade homes through small openings and cracks. To manage these pests, acting promptly when you notice them is crucial.
At Santee Pest Control, we thoroughly inspect your home to identify the type and severity of the cockroach infestation. Our team targets common areas where cockroaches hide, such as kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. We combine baits and insect growth regulators for German cockroaches to stop their reproduction cycle. We apply effective granular treatments for other species like American, Brown Banded, and Australian cockroaches.
Before we begin, we advise homeowners to clean the treatment areas, especially for German cockroach treatments. This includes washing dishes, vacuuming floors, and cleaning behind appliances. Good sanitation helps our treatments work better. Once the treatment is applied, you should start seeing a reduction in cockroach activity within a few days.
We provide thorough follow-up treatments to keep your home cockroach-free. After the initial treatment, our technicians will assess the situation to determine if additional visits are needed. We follow up within two weeks to monitor progress and apply any necessary treatments. If a third visit is required, it will be scheduled at no extra cost.
Our follow-up treatments vary based on the type of cockroach. For German roaches, we may apply IGRs to stop their reproduction. We use effective granular treatments for other species, like American or Australian cockroaches. We also provide tips on how you can help prevent re-infestation, such as maintaining cleanliness and sealing entry points.
Our quarterly service focuses on protecting your home from cockroaches. Our team applies effective treatments to eliminate and prevent these pests from returning. Each service typically takes about an hour, depending on the severity of the infestation.
Our quarterly visits are thorough, encompassing inspections and treatments. We guide you on any necessary preparations, such as homeowner involvement for German cockroaches. Our approach is a fusion of targeted treatments and practical tips for maintaining a pest-free home. You can trust Santee Pest Control to keep your home secure with our reliable and professional pest control services.
