Inspection and activity mapping
We look for signs of activity and likely harbourages, including moisture points and gaps around kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, and drains.
If you have live cockroaches, egg cases, or ongoing activity around kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, or drains, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help. Our team inspects the source of activity and targets the harbourages so treatment can work where cockroaches actually live.
Cockroaches usually persist because conditions that support them are still present. The goal is to find and address where they are hiding and what is keeping them there.
What cockroach activity looks like
Cockroaches are often most noticeable at night and after lights are off. Common indicators in kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, under sinks, behind appliances, and near drains can include sightings, dark specks, a musty odour, or egg cases in sheltered gaps.
You might only spot a few roaches, but they can be hiding in gaps around pipes, under appliances, and behind kitchen fittings. Addressing these harbourages during treatment is what helps break the cycle of activity.
