How can we get rid of them?

Our Integrated Roach Treatment Process:

1. Thorough Inspection: Our experienced technicians begin with a detailed inspection to identify roach species, infestation levels, and harborage areas. This allows us to tailor our treatment plan to your specific needs.

2.   Roach Flush & Vacuum: We initiate the treatment by flushing roaches from their hiding places using specialized, non-toxic flushing agents. This drives roaches out into the open, where they are immediately vacuumed using high-powered HEPA filter vacuums. This step significantly reduces the initial roach population and minimizes the spread of allergens

3.  Actisol Fogging: We employ the advanced Actisol fogging system, which delivers a fine, penetrating mist of insecticide into hard-to-reach areas, including cracks, crevices, and wall voids. This method effectively targets roaches where they hide, ensuring comprehensive coverage and eliminating even deeply entrenched infestations.

4. Targeted Residual Spray: Following the fogging, we apply a long-lasting residual spray to key areas, creating a barrier that prevents roaches from returning. This residual spray continues to eliminate roaches for weeks after the initial treatment, providing ongoing protection.

5. Preventative Recommendations: Our technicians will provide you with valuable tips and recommendations to prevent future roach infestations, including sanitation practices, sealing entry points, and proper food storage.

6. Follow-up Services: We offer follow-up services to ensure complete eradication and address any lingering issues.
