Cockroach Control in Southeast Michigan

Cockroaches are resilient pests that reproduce quickly and can be difficult to eliminate without professional treatment.

American Cockroach

Reddish-brown and much larger, up to 50mm. More common in commercial settings, sewers, and basements. Sometimes called a palmetto bug.

Oriental Cockroach

Shiny black, about 25mm. Prefers cool, damp areas like basements and drains. Emits a strong musty odor.


How We Treat

Professional cockroach treatment uses gel baits, insect growth regulators, and targeted residual treatments in harborage areas. German cockroach infestations typically require follow-up visits. Over-the-counter products often move cockroaches without eliminating them, making professional treatment more effective.
