If you're dealing with a pest problem in Fish Hoek, our cockroach control service is designed to find the source, treat it properly and stop it coming back.
Cockroaches are the pest we're called about most. German cockroaches breed incredibly fast in warm kitchens, behind fridges and inside appliances, while the larger American cockroach lives in drains, sewers and roof spaces and wanders indoors at night. Store-bought sprays usually just scatter them deeper into walls.
Why is it a problem in Fish Hoek?
Fish Hoek's family homes in the valley between False Bay and the mountains see rodents and spiders from the surrounding fynbos as well as coastal cockroaches.
Coastal conditions. Damp sea air, mist and onshore wind keep wall cavities, roof spaces and under-sink cupboards humid, which suits cockroaches, fishmoths and ants. Homes and flats close to the sea in Fish Hoek also tend to see rodents move indoors when the winter storms arrive.
Signs to look out for
- Droppings like ground pepper or coffee grounds in drawers and cupboard hinges
- Brown egg cases (oothecae) behind the fridge, stove or microwave
- A musty, oily smell in cupboards in heavier infestations
- Shed skins near appliances, the geyser cupboard or under the sink
How does our cockroach control work?

How should I prepare?

- Empty the cupboards under the sink and around the stove
- Move pet food and water bowls out of the kitchen
- Do not spray store-bought insecticide before we arrive: it repels baits and spreads roaches
