Cockroach baiting is one of the most common treatments booked in Brisbane homes, especially in kitchens, bathrooms and apartments. The crew places small dots of gel bait in the concealed places cockroaches feed and shelter, such as cupboard hinges, the gaps behind kickboards and the cracks around pipes. Some homes also get small bait stations in spots where gel is not practical.
Cockroaches eat the bait and return to their hiding spots, where they die. Other cockroaches then feed on their droppings and remains, which spreads the bait further through the group. This reaches cockroaches deep inside walls and behind cupboards that you would never see. When you call, we ask where you are seeing activity, give you an upfront price and book an independent crew working nearby.

In the first week you may see more cockroaches out during the day, some of them slow or dying. That is a sign the bait is being eaten. Most homes see a big drop within one to two weeks. Leave the bait spots alone, do not wipe them away and avoid store-bought sprays, which can put cockroaches off feeding.
Keeping benches clear of crumbs and fixing leaks means the bait becomes the easiest food around, so it works faster. Heavier problems may need a second round a few weeks later. To book cockroach baiting in Brisbane, call 07 3543 7767 and we will find a time that suits you.
