Cockroaches need three things to establish a colony: food, water, and warmth. Luther's housing stock gives them exactly that. Housing spans historic ranching and farming towns to newer suburban subdivisions throughout the metro. Combined with Luther's climate — a climate defined by wide temperature swings and some of the most active severe-weather seasons in the country — indoor cockroach pressure rarely lets up on its own.
We start with an inspection to identify the species and the source — sanitation issue, moisture problem, or entry point. Treatment centers on gel bait placed in cracks, voids, and under appliances, not broadcast spraying, since German cockroaches in particular have developed resistance to many surface sprays. A follow-up visit confirms the bait is working and the population is dropping.
