German cockroaches favor warm, humid spaces near food and water — kitchens, behind appliances, under sinks — and Tekonsha's a climate shaped by proximity to Lake Michigan and, farther north, genuinely severe Upper Peninsula winters keeps them active most of the year. American cockroaches, larger and reddish-brown, prefer basements, drains, and utility rooms. Housing here ranges from historic furniture-industry-era homes in Grand Rapids to rustic cabins and rural housing in the north and Upper Peninsula.
Because sanitation and moisture are almost always part of the problem, our process pairs targeted gel-bait treatment with a review of what's drawing roaches in — a leak, exposed food storage, cluttered voids. Broadcast sprays just scatter a colony; bait placed at the harborage site eliminates it. A follow-up visit confirms results.
