![]() ![]() Not the floors, not the countertops, to those cracks and crevices. And that’s one thing that using the baits and some of the new liquids that we use, but we’re not spraying cabinets down like we used to, and we should be directing the treatments because cockroaches, especially the German cockroaches are thigmotactic, meaning they like tight cracks and crevices something above them and something below them, touching them so they feel protected.Īnd so if those cracks and crevices, we really like to apply the liquid insecticide. We’re going to be using liquids that once dried, they should not bother anybody, of course, we’re treating cracks and crevices. It’s best that people just leave for a while, for several hours, maybe three to four hours, let us do the treatment. Let’s say it’s a German cockroach infestation, where we’d be treating for quite a while. We often recommend that they not be around while we’re doing the service. We always got to take into consideration it’s probably not best for them not to be present while we’re doing the service especially depending on the materials that we’re using. ![]() And I was like, “Oh, how long ago was that?” And then she said, “A few weeks before.” I said, “Did the infestation start shortly after that?” She goes, “Yes, it did.” I said, “Well, your husband carried them into the home for you.” I probably got him in trouble that day. And I was treating around the dishwasher and she happened to mention that her husband had picked it up second hand. And she was trying to figure out where her cockroaches came from. And I had a lady one time and I was treating her home for German cockroaches, a nice house, not very dirty at all, very clean home. In theory, they could come back if they’re reintroduced, because those German cockroaches, they’re going to travel on purses, book bags, used furniture, materials like that that obviously are not treated so they could be reintroduced.īut usually we’re the ones doing it. If they get reintroduced, whether there may be some residual insecticide there, it’s depending upon how long after they’re eliminated. It’s hard for us to prevent that kind of issue. But if you were to have someone come visit, bring cockroaches with them, or they get reintroduced, that would be a new problem. So typically once you get rid of them, they won’t be reinfesting from the outside. For the German cockroaches really, sometimes actually in an infestation that’s advanced that can take a few weeks. So typically most companies come about every three months and do a reapplication on the outside to keep those outdoor roaches away from your home. Sooner or later the pesticide goes outside, thanks to the sunlight, into the wind and rain and things like that, pesticides break down. And so therefore you got to get rid of the ones that are on the inside already, but of course, then on a routine basis to have the exterior of the home treated so that they won’t come back in anew, okay. Now you still may need to put baits and treat attics and treat crawl spaces, treat storage rooms. When you treat outside for those roaches, you’re being proactive and you can use insecticides that are more repellent or kill on contact so that they don’t make it into the home.
