Cockroaches

Cockroaches

Not only are they a nuisance, but they can also pose serious health risks. Cockroaches carry bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli, contaminate food, and can even trigger allergies and asthma attacks.

These pests are nocturnal and excellent at hiding, making infestations difficult to spot until they’ve already become a problem. Common signs of cockroaches include droppings that look like black pepper, a musty odour, shed skins, and seeing them scurry away when you switch on a light.

At SafeTek Pest Control, we provide fast, discreet, and effective cockroach control solutions. Our trained technicians use safe, targeted treatments to eliminate cockroaches at the source and prevent them from returning. We’ll also advise you on how to reduce the risk of future infestations through good hygiene and sealing entry points.

Don’t let cockroaches take over your property – contact us today for a professional inspection and treatment plan.
