Not every call in Toowong is about an active problem. Some people just want a look around before buying, moving in, or after seeing one cockroach and wanting to find out if there are more. A cockroach inspection is a room-by-room check of the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, roof space and sub-floor where there is access, looking for live activity, droppings, egg cases and the gaps cockroaches use to get inside. It is also a common request before a lease ends or a property changes hands, so there are no surprises for whoever moves in next.
The crew we book works through the home in a set order, starting where cockroaches are most often found before checking less obvious spots like the backs of cupboards, under the fridge and around hot water systems. They will point out anything worth fixing, such as gaps around pipes or a damp patch under the sink, even where there is no sign of cockroaches yet. In Toowong, with so many homes close to the river and the hill catching runoff, damp sub-floors and humid roof spaces come up often enough to be worth a proper look rather than a quick glance.
- Kitchen, bathroom and laundry checked room by room
- Roof space and sub-floor inspected wherever there is access
- Entry points around pipes, vents and weep holes noted
- A plain explanation of what was found and what it means
- A quote for treatment on the spot if it is needed
If nothing is found, you will be told that too, along with a few habits worth keeping an eye on given how close parts of Toowong sit to the river. An inspection usually takes under an hour depending on the size of the home.
