Vacuum: All furniture, cupboards, carpets and baseboards in the affected areas would be thoroughly vacuumed to physically remove all visible cockroaches. Vacuuming and steaming are optional for small to medium infestations.
Steam: We next apply directed heat in the form of steam to the same surfaces, unless it is a sensitive material like suede or leather. We apply heat directly and intentionally so we never damage anything in your home.
Dust: Dusts will be applied in cracks, crevices, and under-cabinet voids. No dust application will occur in an accessible location. Cockroaches pick up the dust when they crawl over it and ingest it when they clean themselves, leading to dehydration and death.
Bait: A gel or liquid bait will be applied to slips of paper and slipped into crevices throughout the areas of activity (out of reach of children and pets). These will later be removed and discarded. Baits are very low risk, and are approved for even the strictest of applications.
Spray: A spray will be applied to the inside of all cabinets and drawers only when necessary, to limit insecticide resistance. It will be okay to return foodstuffs to the cabinets as soon as you are clear to reenter the dwelling.
