Our Cockroach Extermination Services
Cockroaches thrive in warm, humid environments, making Houston a perfect breeding ground. These pests can multiply fast, hide in tight spaces, and spread diseases. Our team specializes in comprehensive cockroach extermination using safe, science-based methods that target the root of the problem.
We provide customized treatment plans for both residential and commercial properties. Whether you are dealing with German cockroaches in an apartment, American cockroaches in a restaurant, or oriental cockroaches around drains, we identify the species, locate nesting sites, and apply precise treatments. Our goal is to eliminate active infestations while preventing future reinfestations through ongoing monitoring and exclusion techniques.
Our services include:
Thorough inspections to find entry points, nesting sites, and conducive conditions.
Targeted treatments using insect growth regulators, baits, and residual sprays.
Follow-up visits to confirm full elimination.
Preventive maintenance to keep your property roach-free year-round.
Let’s break it down. Cockroach control isn’t just about killing what you see. It’s about identifying where they hide, how they enter, and what keeps them coming back. That’s where we excel.

Signs of a Cockroach Infestation
Cockroaches are nocturnal and secretive, so seeing just one is often a warning of a much larger problem. Knowing the signs can help you act fast before a minor issue becomes a major infestation.
Common signs include:
Droppings: Small, dark specks resembling coffee grounds found in corners or drawers.
Egg casings: Oval brown capsules found behind appliances or inside cabinets.
Musty odor: A strong, unpleasant smell caused by large numbers of roaches.
Shed skins: Cockroaches shed multiple times as they grow.
Smear marks: Oily streaks along walls or floors in damp areas.
Live roaches at night: Seeing roaches when you turn on the light signals a severe problem.
If you spot these signs, you need professional help immediately. DIY sprays can make things worse by scattering roaches deeper into walls and cracks. Our professionals know how to target them at the source.
Our Cockroach Extermination Process
Our proven process ensures your roach problem gets resolved completely—not just temporarily masked. Here’s how we handle each step:
Inspection and Identification
We start with a detailed inspection of your property. Our technicians look for droppings, nesting sites, egg casings, and entry points. Different cockroach species require different strategies, so correct identification is key.Sanitation Assessment
Cockroaches need food, water, and shelter. We check for leaks, crumbs, and clutter that may be sustaining the infestation. We provide you with specific recommendations to reduce these attractants.Customized Treatment Plan
We develop a targeted plan based on infestation level, structure type, and cockroach species. For example, German cockroaches require bait placement in kitchen cracks and crevices, while American cockroaches often need exterior perimeter treatments.Targeted Application
Our technicians apply advanced products that combine insect growth regulators (IGRs), gel baits, and non-repellent residual sprays. This approach ensures the colony collapses from within rather than just killing visible roaches.Follow-Up Visits
Because cockroach eggs can hatch weeks later, follow-ups are essential. We schedule re-inspections and additional treatments until the problem is fully resolved.Prevention and Monitoring
Once the infestation is gone, we set up preventive barriers and offer ongoing maintenance plans to keep cockroaches from returning. We also install monitors in high-risk areas like kitchens and restrooms for early detection.
This systematic approach has helped hundreds of Houston homeowners and business owners maintain pest-free spaces.
Why Choose Our Cockroach Exterminator in Houston
Choosing the right exterminator makes all the difference. Here’s why Houston Cockroach Exterminators stands out:
Local expertise: We understand Houston’s humid climate and how it affects pest activity year-round.
Certified professionals: Our technicians are licensed, insured, and trained in the latest IPM (Integrated Pest Management) techniques.
Safe treatments: We use EPA-approved products safe for families, pets, and the environment.
Fast response: We offer same-day and emergency appointments across Houston.
Proven track record: Our results speak for themselves with consistent five-star reviews and repeat customers.
Comprehensive protection: From apartments in Midtown to restaurants in The Heights, we handle all property types.
Here is why that matters. Houston’s climate allows roaches to breed continuously, and generic pest control often fails because it doesn’t adapt to these conditions. We tailor our process to Houston’s environment—hot, humid, and full of hiding spots.
We don’t rely on one-size-fits-all sprays. Our technicians inspect crawl spaces, attics, basements, and wall voids to ensure total coverage. That’s the level of care you deserve.
Cockroach Control for Homes & Businesses
Cockroaches don’t discriminate. They infest homes, apartments, offices, and food establishments alike. We offer specialized services tailored to your specific environment.
Residential Cockroach Control
Your home should feel safe and clean. Cockroaches contaminate food, trigger allergies, and spread bacteria. We eliminate them quickly using child-safe treatments and detailed cleaning recommendations. Whether you live in a single-family home, duplex, or high-rise apartment, we’ll find and eliminate the problem at its source.
We also focus on prevention. Many infestations start from grocery deliveries, used appliances, or neighboring units. Our exclusion methods seal off access points and create barriers that keep your home secure long after the treatment.
Commercial Cockroach Control
Cockroaches can ruin your reputation overnight. Restaurants, hotels, warehouses, and healthcare facilities must maintain strict hygiene standards. Even one sighting can lead to bad reviews or health code violations. We offer discreet commercial pest control with flexible scheduling to minimize disruption.
Our team uses advanced monitoring systems, sanitation audits, and routine inspections to keep your business compliant and roach-free. We also provide documentation for health inspections and employee training on pest prevention best practices.
Let’s face it—commercial kitchens, grocery stores, and warehouses in Houston are ideal roach habitats. We’ll keep yours off that list.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How fast can you get rid of cockroaches?
Most infestations show visible improvement within 24–48 hours. Full elimination can take 2–3 weeks depending on severity and sanitation conditions.
Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?
Yes. We use EPA-approved products designed for use in homes, schools, and healthcare settings. Our technicians follow strict safety protocols.
How do cockroaches get inside homes?
They often enter through cracks, drains, vents, or packages. In Houston, they can also travel through shared walls in multi-unit buildings.
Can I handle cockroaches myself?
DIY sprays and traps can kill a few visible roaches but rarely solve the root problem. Professional extermination targets colonies hidden behind walls or under appliances.

Keep areas clean, fix leaks, store food in sealed containers, and maintain regular pest inspections. We also offer affordable maintenance plans to protect your property year-round.
