The Effectiveness of Professional Cockroach Elimination
The two main approaches to cockroach control in Toronto and the GTA are chemical and comprehensive treatment. Chemical methods are inefficient because roaches hide behind appliances, within cracks, and in walls where chemicals cannot reach. Roach eggs continue to thrive in inaccessible areas.
Qualified experts inspect the property to identify the type of roaches, their degree of infestation, and the areas where they have taken refuge. Wall interiors, appliances, plumbing systems, and electrical equipment are among the areas that are inspected. Depending on the results of the inspection, individual protocols are made which will consider the types of roaches and the prevailing conditions. The following are among the methods used in our treatments: baiting, spraying, growth regulation, and changes in the environment. All the developmental stages of the roaches will be targeted.
Cockroach Species Prevalent in the Greater Toronto Area
German Cockroaches (Blattella germanica)
This is the most common cockroach found in homes and businesses across North America. They are 12 to 15 millimeters long, light brown, and have dark markings on their backs.
German cockroaches breed quickly and outcompete other species when conditions are right.
American Cockroaches (Periplaneta americana)
American cockroaches are much bigger than German cockroaches, at 30 to 40 millimeters long and reddish-brown in color. They prefer large spaces like commercial kitchens, warehouses, and sewers.
They are less common in homes, but in apartment buildings or connected spaces, they can spread and create new infestations by moving between units.
Brown-Banded Cockroaches (Supella longipalpa)
Brown-banded cockroaches are smaller, about 10 to 14 millimeters long, with noticeable bands on their wings. They prefer drier areas than other cockroach species.
Oriental Cockroaches (Blatta orientalis)
The Oriental cockroach is a big, black roach that is 20 to 30 millimeters long. They prefer cool, moist environments like basements, crawlspaces, and outdoors.
Comprehensive cockroach control in Toronto and the GTA covers all species with appropriate treatment methods.
