Wall void dusting treats the enclosed spaces inside walls, behind cupboards and above ceilings, where cockroaches often breed out of sight. In Brisbane homes, these voids are common hiding spots, especially in kitchens and bathrooms where pipes and cables run through the walls. A spray cannot reach inside them, and bait works when cockroaches come out to feed, so dust fills the gap.
The crew uses a hand duster to puff a very fine insecticide dust through existing gaps, power point openings, pipe holes and small drill holes where needed. The dust settles on the surfaces inside the void, and cockroaches pick it up on their bodies as they move through. When you call, we ask where you are seeing cockroaches, give you an upfront price and book an independent crew working nearby.
- Kitchen walls behind the stove, fridge and sink
- Bathroom and laundry walls around pipes and drains
- Gaps behind kickboards and inside cupboard frames
- Ceiling and roof spaces where access allows
- Around the hot water system and electricity box
Dust stays active inside the wall for a good while because it is sheltered from cleaning, light and rain. It is often used alongside cockroach baiting, so cockroaches are hit both when they feed and when they hide. The crew will explain where the dust has been applied and what to avoid while it settles.
Wall void dusting suits apartments and units, where cockroaches travel through shared wall cavities, as well as older homes with gaps behind timber linings. To book wall void dusting in Brisbane, call 07 3543 7767 and we will arrange a time that suits you.
