Cockroach Extermination Experts
Cockroach Treatment Experts
Cockroaches have mastered the art of survival. They’ve been around for millions of years, and will likely be around for a million more. They have learned to adapt to almost any kind of environment, and can survive without food for a month. Cockroaches life span can be a full year, and they multiply very fast – a single female cockroach is known to produce as many as 400 offspring.
These traits have made the cockroach one of the top household pests across the globe. Because roaches scavenge for food, the surface of their bodies is laden with disease-causing microbes. They are known carriers of bacteria that cause a variety of intestinal disorders such as dysentery, cholera, typhoid fever and diarrhea. Roaches also carry an offensive odor, and some people develop allergic reactions to them.

COCKROACHES
Frequently Asked Questions
Cockroaches are attracted to food, moisture, and shelter. Common attractants include crumbs, grease, pet food, standing water, clutter, and small cracks or gaps where they can hide.
The most common types include German cockroaches, which are often found indoors near kitchens and bathrooms, and American cockroaches, which are typically found in basements, crawl spaces, and commercial buildings.
Signs include seeing live cockroaches, especially at night, droppings that resemble coffee grounds or black pepper, shed skins, egg casings, and a musty odor in heavily infested areas.
Store bought sprays and traps may reduce visible activity but rarely eliminate the infestation. Cockroaches reproduce quickly and hide in hard to reach areas. Professional treatment targets the source of the problem for long term control.
Chilton’s uses a targeted approach that may include baiting, crack and crevice treatments, growth regulators, and sanitation recommendations. This strategy addresses both active cockroaches and future generations.
With proper treatment and prevention, cockroach activity can be effectively controlled. Ongoing pest control services help prevent re-infestation, especially in high risk environments.
