The kitchen is where most cockroach calls in Toowong start. It has everything cockroaches look for: food, moisture from the sink and dishwasher, and warm gaps behind and under appliances where they can sit undisturbed. A kitchen cockroach treatment focuses the visit on this one room, rather than treating the whole home when that is not what is needed. It suits homes where activity has stayed close to the sink, stove and pantry rather than spreading into bedrooms or living areas.
The crew we book starts by pulling out what can be moved without trouble, checking behind the fridge, oven and dishwasher, inside cupboard hinges and around the sink cabinet. These are the exact spots German cockroaches use to breed, so a look here does more than a general spray around the room. Rangehoods, toasters and the space under the kick boards along the base of cupboards are also checked, since crumbs and warmth collect there unnoticed.

Kitchen-only visits suit units and smaller homes in Toowong where the problem has not spread to other rooms yet. If the crew finds signs of activity elsewhere during the visit, they will tell you and price any extra work before doing it, never after. Most kitchen visits take under an hour, and the bait spots are placed out of reach of small children and pets wherever the layout allows.
