Cockroach Control
Eliminate Cockroaches, Fast, Safe, and for Good
Cockroaches are one of the most common and unsettling, household pests in Queensland.
They spread germs, contaminate food, and multiply quickly in warm, humid conditions.
At Under One Roof, we provide professional cockroach control treatments designed for Queensland’s climate and cockroach species.
Our licensed technicians use safe, effective, and long-lasting methods to remove infestations and prevent them from coming back.
🏠 Why Cockroach Problems Keep Coming Back
Cockroaches breed rapidly, hide in hard-to-reach places, and can live for weeks without food. DIY sprays may kill what you see, but not the colony hiding behind walls, under appliances, or in drains.
Common species we treat include:
-
German Cockroach – small, fast-breeding, often found in kitchens and bathrooms.
-
American Cockroach – large, reddish-brown, usually in drains, subfloors, and outdoors.
-
Australian Cockroach – prefers warm, damp areas near vegetation or leaks.
-
Smoky-Brown Cockroach – common around gutters, garages, and roof spaces.
⚙️ Our Cockroach Treatment Process
1. Inspection & Identification
We locate nesting sites and assess the infestation level.
2. Targeted Gel Baiting
Professional-grade gel baits applied in hidden areas (cupboards, hinges, under sinks).
3. Residual Surface Treatment
Odourless, long-lasting insecticides applied along skirting boards, entry points, and cracks.
4. Dusting of Roof Voids & Subfloors
For larger infestations, we apply insecticidal dust in hidden breeding areas.
5. Follow-Up Maintenance
In severe cases, a re-treatment may be scheduled 4–6 weeks later to ensure full eradication.
We don’t just kill what you see, we destroy the colony at its source.
🌿 Safe, Family-Friendly Treatments
Our cockroach treatments are low-odour, low-toxicity, and completely safe for families and pets when applied correctly.
We use leading Australian-approved products and follow strict safety standards.
After your service, our technician will provide simple prevention tips to help keep your home cockroach-free long term.
🚫 Common Signs of a Cockroach Infestation
-
Droppings that look like black pepper or coffee grounds
-
Musty odours (especially in kitchens or cupboards)
-
Shed skins or egg casings
-
Nocturnal activity, roaches visible at night
-
Sightings around sinks, fridges, or dishwashers
If you notice even a few cockroaches, there’s usually a larger colony hiding nearby.
Early treatment is the key to preventing a full infestation.
