Cockroaches need three things to establish a colony: food, water, and warmth. Nash's housing stock gives them exactly that. A mix of established Oklahoma City-area neighborhoods and newer suburban development, most on slab foundations built for the region's clay soil. Combined with Nash's climate — a climate squarely in Tornado Alley, with real seasonal extremes and frequent severe spring thunderstorms — 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.
