Proven Cockroach Elimination
Cockroaches are associated with dirty, unsanitary environments so when your customers or staff see a cockroach, the story can quickly spread via word of mouth or social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Yelp. Stories of cockroach sightings and closures due to environmental health inspections can quickly spiral out of control and cause a public relations nightmare doing irreparable damage to your reputation and brand.
At Ecolab, we consistently deliver our proven protocol for cockroach elimination that works quickly to rid cockroaches and help prevent them from coming back. Our protocol includes:
- Thorough inspections and monitoring
- Residual application for a quick knockdown
- Flushing to drive cockroaches from hiding
- Dusting for long-lasting protection
- Targeted bait applications for protection in sensitive areas
- Documentation of risk areas and action taken
We provide an approach to pest elimination with on-site consultation, data-driven reporting, customer support 24/7/365 and educational tools to raise awareness on how you can prevent pest activity.
