Why german cockroaches are a problem
One egg case carries dozens of young, so a small sighting becomes an infestation within weeks.
How Antex handles german cockroaches
Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.
Prevention tips
Inspect secondhand appliances, dry the sink at night, and act on the very first roach you see.
