Cockroaches in a Ripley home usually turn up in the kitchen, bathroom, laundry or roof space, drawn in by food, water and warm, tight spots to hide during the day. Cockroach control starts with working out where they are coming from, whether that is a gap under the sink, a vent, a subfloor area or a crack around the outside wall, then treating those spots along with the areas where you have actually been seeing them.
The crew we book uses a mix of treatment around entry points, skirting boards, cupboards and other spots cockroaches move through, along with treatment outside around the base of the house, drains and garden beds. Roof spaces and subfloor areas get a look in as well where the block allows, since these are common spots for numbers to build up out of sight.
Every Ripley property is a bit different, from newer townhouses with sealed subfloors to older houses with more gaps around windows, vents and weatherboards. The crew works with what your place actually has rather than a one-size visit, so older homes with more entry points may need a bit more attention than a newer build.

Between visits, wiping up food scraps quickly, keeping bins with a tight lid and fixing any dripping taps all help take away the food and water cockroaches are after in a Ripley kitchen. These small habits do not replace a treatment visit, but they do help keep numbers from building back up as fast once the crew has been through.
