🪳 Cockroach Control

Effective Cockroach Control, Done Properly, Not Temporarily

Cockroaches are one of the most persistent household pests in Queensland.
They thrive in warm, humid conditions and are experts at hiding, which is why quick sprays and DIY treatments rarely solve the problem long-term.

At Under One Roof, cockroach control is handled personally by me, Alastair.
With over 30 years’ experience in construction and years working hands-on as a licensed pest technician, I understand not only how cockroaches behave, but where they hide, how they spread, and how to stop infestations properly.

Why Cockroach Problems Keep Coming Back

Cockroaches breed quickly and nest in areas most people never see, behind appliances, inside cupboards, wall cavities, drains, and roof spaces.

Common reasons infestations persist include:

  • Treatments that only kill visible cockroaches

  • Incorrect product selection

  • Missed nesting sites

  • Moisture or access points not addressed

Effective cockroach control requires identifying the species, targeting breeding areas, and breaking the life cycle, not just surface spraying.

How I Treat Cockroach Infestations

Every treatment is tailored to the property, the species involved, and the level of activity.

  1. Inspection & Identification
    I identify cockroach species, harbourage areas, and access points.

  2. Targeted Gel & Residual Treatments
    Professional-grade gels and residual products are applied precisely where cockroaches nest and travel.

  3. Hidden Area Treatment
    Where required, roof voids, wall cavities, or subfloor areas are treated to address breeding sites.

  4. Prevention Advice
    I explain what conditions contributed to the infestation and how to reduce the risk moving forward.

No blanket spraying. No unnecessary chemicals. Just targeted, effective control.

Safe for Families & Pets

All cockroach treatments use low-toxicity, Australian-approved products that are safe when applied correctly.
Treatments are placed strategically, not indiscriminately, to protect your home and family.

If you have children, pets, or sensitivities, I’ll explain everything clearly before starting.
