What is The Best Spray to Get Rid of Cockroaches?

Living with cockroaches is unpleasant, to say the least, and the first thing most people do is head for the nearest hardware store, for anything that’ll get rid of the critters that poke their heads out when the lights go on.

The question remains though, what is the best spray to get rid of cockroaches? Especially in a marketplace saturated with sprays and foggers, and a hundred other suggestions that salesmen promise will work?

And yes, you may well get rid of a few of the members of what could be the tip of the iceberg, when it comes to the visible cockroaches that are part of a larger infestation that’s out of sight, but that’s often all you’ll do.

They will be back if you don’t get them in their hiding places, which is what professionals are for, and the sprays or foggers have a nasty habit of contaminating surfaces they shouldn’t, causing a health hazard.

The Pesticide Research Institute informs us that the use of a residual spray or fogger when trying to get rid of cockroaches, almost always results in the inhalation of the pesticide.

This is an asthma hazard, and is also hazardous to older members of the family, babies, young children and pets.

Pest Control Pros West Coast approach to Cockroach Control

Our team at Pest Control Pros has found that the most effective approach to cockroach extermination and control treatment is through the use of gel baits, along with the use of a residual spray.

If it is required, our team of specialists will also include the use of a gas and other spray treatments, which come in the form of emulsifiable concentrates, or wettable powders.

Food production areas are treated by our team using gel baits & pheromone traps, which we’ve found to be the safest, most effective cockroach exterminator, however, in more susceptible areas, it may be necessary to maintain a regular schedule of preventative cockroach control treatments.
