Cockroaches more on roaches
- German (small brown, mainly in kitchen)
- Completely empty all kitchen and bathroom cupboards.
- If roaches seen in bedroom, empty chest of drawers, dresser
drawers, and closet shelves.
- Pile things on tables, couches, etc, or in middle of floors
(not against baseboards). Cover completely with sheets, blankets,
etc..
- Wipe down cupboard shelves, counter tops, etc. before treatment.
- Clean stove tops (lift and clean undersides of top) and
exhaust fumes.
- Pull out refrigerator and clean back, bottom and floors.
- Be prepared to vacate property for 2-4 hours.
- Upon return, you may find dead roaches, wipe them up. Wipe
down tables and table tops.
- Do not wipe out cupboards. You may put contents back without
fear of contamination.
- Allow 2 full weeks for complete control. What we spray does
not penetrate egg shells, but is a residual which will kill
the young roaches after they hatch from the eggs. Generally
it will take up to two weeks for the eggs to hatch and/or
for the larger roaches, which are hiding in inaccessible parts
of the walls to come out and get in our residual.
