Why Choose Us?
Why Cockroaches Are a Serious Concern for Your Property
Cockroaches are more than just unpleasant to look at. They are well-known carriers of bacteria and pathogens, contaminating food preparation surfaces, utensils, and stored goods. This can lead to serious health issues like food poisoning, dysentery, and even asthma attacks, especially in vulnerable individuals. What's more, cockroaches breed incredibly quickly, meaning a small sighting can escalate into a major infestation in a very short time. If you’ve spotted one, there are likely many more hidden away. Tackling them effectively requires professional knowledge and equipment, as DIY methods rarely provide a lasting solution.

Who We Are
Spotting the Signs of a Cockroach Infestation
Cockroaches are largely nocturnal, so you might not see them out in the open during the day. However, there are clear signs that indicate their presence, allowing you to act quickly. Keep an eye out for:
- Droppings: These look like small, dark specks, often described as similar to coffee grounds or black pepper. You'll typically find them in cupboards, on worktops, or in drawers.
- Unusual Odour: A distinct, musty smell often accompanies a larger infestation, particularly in confined spaces like cupboards or behind appliances.
- Smear Marks: In damp areas, cockroaches leave brown, irregular smear marks on surfaces.
- Egg Cases (Oothecae): These small, purse-like capsules contain multiple eggs and can be found in sheltered areas.
- Shed Skins: As cockroaches grow, they shed their outer casings. Finding these indicates an active infestation.
If you notice any of these signs, it's time to call in the experts.

01822 668338Our Tailored Approach to Cockroach Eradication
At Moorlander Pest Control, we don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Our expert cockroach control service begins with a thorough site survey of your Stratton property. Our RSPH-qualified technicians will identify the species of cockroach, locate their harborage points (where they hide and breed), and assess the extent of the infestation.
From there, we develop a tailored treatment plan using professional-grade insecticides, gels, and bait stations. These products are far more effective and targeted than anything available off-the-shelf. We focus on key areas such as kitchens, bathrooms, food preparation zones, cracks, crevices, and even drains, where cockroaches frequently hide and travel. Our methods adhere to BPCA (British Pest Control Association) standards, ensuring safe, effective, and responsible treatment every time. We also provide clear, practical advice on preparing for and following up on the treatment to ensure the best possible outcome.
