Cockroach Control
Melbourne

Don't let cockroaches disrupt your peace. Our reliable pest control expertise will ensure they are gone — for good.

Melbourne's Most Common Pest

Cockroaches are among the most resilient and common pests found in Melbourne homes and businesses. The German cockroach, American cockroach, and Australian cockroach are the species most frequently encountered — each requiring a targeted treatment approach.

Beyond being unsightly, cockroaches pose serious health risks. They carry bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli, contaminate food preparation surfaces, and their shed skins and droppings are a known trigger for asthma and allergies.

A single female cockroach can produce hundreds of offspring in her lifetime. Early intervention is critical — what appears to be a minor problem can become a full infestation in weeks.

Signs You Have Cockroaches

Droppings

Small dark droppings resembling coffee grounds or black pepper in kitchen cupboards, behind appliances, and in bathrooms.

Musty Odour

A distinctive, musty smell from cockroach pheromones — especially strong in heavily infested areas like under sinks or inside walls.

Egg Cases (Oothecae)

Brown, leathery egg capsules found behind appliances, in dark corners, or inside cupboards — each containing up to 50 eggs.

Daytime Sightings

Seeing cockroaches during the day is a sign of significant infestation — they're nocturnal and only emerge during daylight when overcrowded.

Smear Marks

Brown smear marks on surfaces where cockroaches travel frequently — especially along wall-floor joins and behind appliances.

Shed Skins

Cockroaches shed their outer skin several times during development. Finding cast skins is a clear sign of an active infestation.

How We Eliminate Cockroaches

A targeted, multi-step approach that eliminates cockroaches at the source and prevents re-infestation.

1

Inspection

We locate harbourage areas, identify the species, and assess the infestation level across your entire property.

2

Gel Bait

Professional-grade gel bait is applied in cracks and crevices — cockroaches carry it back to the nest, eliminating the colony from within.

3

Residual Spray

Perimeter spray treatment applied to skirtings, wall cavities, and appliance backs creates a long-lasting barrier.

4

Follow-Up

We check back to ensure treatment effectiveness and re-treat at no charge if needed within the warranty period.

Cockroach Questions

A standard home treatment takes 30–60 minutes. You'll need to stay out of treated areas for about 30 minutes while the product dries. You can then return to normal activities.
Our treatments include a 3-month warranty. If cockroaches return within this period, we come back and re-treat at no extra cost. Our gel bait approach targets the entire colony, significantly reducing re-infestation risk.
Yes. All products we use are TGA-approved and specifically formulated to be safe for families and pets once dry. We only ask that people and pets vacate treated areas for 30 minutes during application.
Clear access to areas under sinks, behind appliances, and inside cupboards helps. Avoid cleaning areas with strong chemicals for 24 hours after treatment, as this can reduce product effectiveness.
