Sometimes you are not sure how big a cockroach problem is. You might see one or two at night and wonder whether they are coming in from outside or breeding in the kitchen. A cockroach inspection gives you a clear answer before you spend money on treatment. It also suits people moving into a new home or rental on the Sunshine Coast who want to check first. It is also useful after a treatment, to check whether numbers have dropped, or before booking a second visit for German cockroaches. The crew looks for fresh droppings and new egg cases, which show whether the cockroaches are still breeding.
When you call, we ask what you have noticed and give you upfront pricing for the inspection. Then we book a nearby independent crew. The crew we book goes through the home room by room, using a torch to check the dark corners, cracks and appliance backs where cockroaches like to hide.
- Kitchen cupboards, hinges and appliance backs checked
- Bathrooms, laundries and floor wastes checked for activity
- Roof space and subfloor checked where they can be reached
- Droppings, egg cases and shed skins looked for
- Outside drains, gardens and entry points checked
- A plain run-down of what was found and what to do next
Signs the crew looks for include small dark droppings like ground pepper, brown egg cases, shed skins and a musty smell in cupboards. If they find active cockroaches, they will tell you which type they are, how widespread the problem seems and what treatment would suit. You can go ahead on the same visit or book it for later.
We book cockroach inspections for houses, units and short stay rentals across the Sunshine Coast. Call 07 3543 7767 to book a time.
