Basic Cockroach Control Tips
Three types are commonly regarded as pests: German cockroach, Brown-Banded cockroach and American cockroach. Famous for inflicting health issues, they are active at night and feed on a wide variety of organic sources. Most seek shelter within moist cracks and crevices. Be mindful of the following to prevent cockroaches from infesting your property.
Remove Indoor Trash
Choose bins with lids to avoid pests from entering and make sure to dispose of garbage regularly to eliminate food sources that attract cockroaches.
Clear Leftover Food
Clear dirty dishes and seal and store away leftover food or pet food as the smell can attract cockroaches to enter your property and establish a colony.
Seal Off Entry Points
Mind the door gaps, windows, cabinet crevices and cracks — these are common entryways for cockroaches to enter your property and find harborage.
Clean Kitchen Appliances
Utensils and appliances should be cleaned after usage. Cockroaches are attracted to dirt, food crumbs and filth as easy food sources inside your kitchen.
Do-It-Yourself Cockroach Control Remedy
Most times during cockroach infestation, do-it-yourself home remedies are explored first. This will work especially if your problem is not serious.
Baking Soda
Mix baking soda with sugar — the sugar acts as bait while baking soda kills cockroaches when consumed. An effective and non-toxic home remedy for mild infestations.
Neem
Neem oil mixed with water and sprayed onto infested areas repels cockroaches effectively. The scent drives them away but does not affect eggs already in cases.
Dish Soap
Cockroaches inhale through their exoskeleton. A mixture of dish soap and water sprayed directly onto them causes suffocation. Requires direct contact to be effective.
Corn Starch & Plaster of Paris
Combine equal amounts of corn starch and plaster of Paris into a powder to sprinkle in infested areas. When consumed, it hardens inside the cockroach and eliminates it.
Although do-it-yourself remedies may provide temporary relief, determining that the problem is fully resolved is very difficult. The target is to stop cockroaches from multiplying and to find their egg cases. Their oothecae are well concealed in cracks and crevices, making it a challenging task. Engaging our professional cockroach control services is the most effective and permanent solution.

Our Cockroach Control Treatment Methods
We select the right combination based on your infestation severity, property type and species identified.
Gel Baiting
Most EffectiveOne of the most effective solutions to control cockroaches. Gel bait contains a slow-acting insecticide combined with food attractants. Applied using a syringe into cracks and crevices — creates a cascading kill effect throughout the colony.
Residual Spray
Long-LastingResidual spraying of insecticide on walls and other surfaces of the property. The spray can last for several hours and up to weeks, even months. Provides direct elimination and ongoing protection against returning cockroaches.
Granular Baits
Outdoor ControlGranular baits are in granule form, unlike the usual liquid insecticides. Ideal for outdoor areas, drains and garden perimeters. Cockroaches are attracted to and consume the bait, eliminating colonies at the source.
Bait Stations
Child & Pet SafeBait stations serve as a protective housing for cockroach baits, preventing children and pets from coming into direct contact. Stations are placed in harborage areas and replaced during follow-up visits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our cockroach control services in Singapore.
How do I know if I need professional cockroach control? ⌄
If you are seeing live cockroaches during the day, finding droppings, smear marks, egg cases or detecting a musty odour, you likely have an established infestation. Daytime cockroach sightings in particular indicate a large colony. Professional treatment is necessary when DIY methods have failed or when the infestation is in a food handling area.
What types of cockroaches are most common in Singapore? ⌄
The three most common species in Singapore are the German cockroach (Blattella germanica), American cockroach (Periplaneta americana) and Brown-Banded cockroach (Supella longipalpa). Each species has different harborage preferences and requires a different treatment approach, which is why species identification is critical before treatment begins.
Are your treatments safe for children and pets? ⌄
Yes. All products we use are NEA approved. Residents should vacate the treated area for a short period after chemical application. Our gel bait treatments are low toxicity and placed in inaccessible locations away from children and pets. Bait stations are also used to prevent direct contact with baits.
How many treatment sessions will I need? ⌄
Most residential infestations require 2 to 3 treatment sessions spaced 7 to 14 days apart. Commercial kitchens and food service environments may require more sessions and an ongoing maintenance programme. Our specialists assess the severity during the inspection and recommend the exact number of visits required.
How effective is gel baiting for cockroaches? ⌄
Gel baiting is one of the most effective cockroach control solutions available. The slow-acting bait is consumed by foraging cockroaches and carried back to the colony, creating a cascading kill effect. Unlike residual sprays, gel baits are highly targeted, odourless and safe for use in food preparation areas.
How long does a cockroach treatment session take? ⌄
A standard treatment session takes 45 to 90 minutes depending on the size of the property and severity of infestation. Our technician will conduct a detailed inspection first, then apply the appropriate treatment method and provide a post-service report with follow-up recommendations.
Do I need to prepare my home before treatment? ⌄
Yes. You should clear clutter from under sinks and behind appliances, remove food items from counter tops, empty bins and ensure good access to kitchen cabinets, bathrooms and storage areas. Our technician provides a full preparation checklist during the inspection visit.
What is your guarantee if cockroaches return? ⌄
We provide a service warranty. If cockroaches return within the warranty period, our team returns at no additional charge until the problem is fully resolved. We provide both a hard copy and electronic service report after every visit.
