Accrington's Leading Cockroach Treatment Experts
Cockroaches are more than just an unpleasant sight - they’re a health hazard!
Cockroach infestations can develop in any property but are especially common in places with access to food, warmth, and moisture. These include kitchens, food establishments, hotels, hostels, shared housing, and even Airbnb rentals. Once inside, cockroaches can quickly multiply and become a serious problem.

Treatment of Cockroach Infestations
Our cockroach treatments usually begin with a thorough inspection to identify harbourage areas, food sources, and access points. We then apply a combination of professional-grade gel baits, insecticidal dusts, and residual sprays to eliminate the infestation.
We target hidden cracks, crevices, and hard-to-reach areas where cockroaches often nest, using precise application methods to maximise effectiveness. On follow-up visits, we may use long-lasting residual insecticides to prevent reinfestation and monitor progress.
The treatment method and product choice will be determined on-site after we assess the environment and the severity of the infestation.
Causes of Cockroach Infestations
Unlike some pests that hitchhike on people or pets, cockroaches usually gain access through structural gaps, drains, or even via deliveries and second-hand goods.
Once inside, they seek out warm, dark, and humid environments where food is readily available. This makes kitchens, boiler cupboards, wall cavities, and behind appliances ideal breeding grounds.
Cockroaches are nocturnal, so you may not even realise you have an infestation until it becomes severe. And since they breed rapidly - some species producing hundreds of eggs in a single case - it doesn't take long for a small problem to spiral out of control.
Properties with poor sanitation or inconsistent cleaning routines are particularly vulnerable, but even clean homes can become infested if cockroaches find food and shelter.
Have You Got Cockroaches?
Signs of a cockroach infestation include:
- Sightings of live or dead cockroaches, especially at night
- Unpleasant, musty odour often associated with cockroach infestations
- Droppings that resemble ground coffee or black pepper
- Shed skins or egg cases (oothecae) in dark corners or behind appliances
- Smear marks along walls or surfaces where cockroaches have been active
If you're seeing any of these signs, don't wait - cockroach infestations are notoriously difficult to eliminate without professional help.
