The problem
One Roach in the Kitchen Is Rarely Just One
Louisiana's heat and humidity keep roaches active all year. American roaches wander in from outside, but German roaches are the real problem. They live indoors, breed fast and can spread from one cabinet to the whole kitchen within weeks.
We identify which roach you have and treat it the right way, from a full German roach clean-out to ongoing protection that keeps outdoor roaches outside.
Call us if you're seeing
- Small roaches in kitchen cabinets or near the stove
- Roaches in the bathroom or around drains
- Big roaches coming in after rain
- Droppings or egg casings in drawers
- Roaches during the day (a sign of heavy activity)

The Cockroaches We Treat Most in Louisiana
German Cockroaches
Small, light brown, two dark stripes behind the head. Indoor specialists that multiply fast in kitchens, bathrooms and appliances.
American Cockroaches
The big reddish-brown roaches that come in from outside, especially after heavy rain and in summer heat.
Oriental Cockroaches
Dark and shiny, drawn to drains, crawlspaces and damp areas.
German roach clean-out
How We Wipe Out a German Roach Infestation
German roaches need precision, not a fog bomb. Our clean-out targets where they live and breed so the population collapses instead of scattering.
- Species confirmation and harborage mapping
- Precision gel bait placement
- Insect growth regulators to stop reproduction
- Crack-and-crevice dusting in voids and appliances
- Monitoring boards to measure progress
- Follow-up inspection and retreatment as needed
Optional cleanup
Appliance pull-outs, HEPA vacuuming and steam treatment speed up results on heavy infestations. We'll explain why before recommending it.
Ongoing protection
After the clean-out, monthly or bi-monthly Freedom Membership plans keep German roaches covered.
Early warning
Signs of a German Roach Problem
- Pepper-like droppings in cabinets and drawers
- Smear marks along baseboards
- Egg casings in drawer corners
- A musty odor in closed spaces
- Roaches scattering when the lights come on
- Small nymphs in the kitchen or bathroom
- Activity inside appliances
If you're seeing more than one life stage, the infestation is already established. Call sooner rather than later.
Ongoing roach protection is part of our plans. German roach clean-outs are priced by severity and home size, and you'll know the cost before we start. Bigger project? Financing through Wisetack lets qualified customers pay over time.
What kind of roaches do I have?
Small light-brown roaches with two dark stripes behind the head, found in kitchens and bathrooms, are usually German cockroaches. Large reddish-brown roaches that come in from outside are usually American cockroaches. Dark, shiny roaches near drains and damp areas are often Oriental cockroaches.
Why are German roaches so hard to get rid of?
They breed fast, live entirely indoors near food and water, and hide in tight cracks, appliances and wall voids. Store sprays scatter them instead of wiping out the population.
How do you treat German roaches?
With a German roach clean-out: species confirmation, mapping where they hide, gel bait, insect growth regulators, crack-and-crevice dusting, monitoring boards and a follow-up visit.
Are roaches covered in my plan?
American and other outdoor roaches are covered under every Freedom Membership plan. German roaches are covered on our monthly and bi-monthly plans, and heavy infestations start with a clean-out.
Are cockroaches a health risk?
Yes. Roaches contaminate food and surfaces, and German cockroaches leave allergens that can trigger asthma, especially in children.
Can you treat apartments and multi-unit buildings?
Yes. Shared walls and plumbing make roaches spread between units, so we treat the voids and gaps they travel through, not just the room where you saw them.
What can I do to help?
Keep food sealed, fix leaks, take out trash nightly and clear cardboard and clutter. Our optional conducive condition cleanup can handle appliance pull-outs and HEPA vacuuming for you.
