Cockroaches
Cockroaches are a major health hazard, spreading bacteria and triggering allergies. They’re difficult to control once established. Home Guard IPM conducts full-home inspections and uses growth regulators, bait gels, and sanitation strategies to eliminate roaches. Our experienced technicians begin with a thorough inspection to locate activity zones, entry points, and environmental factors that may be contributing to the infestation.
We educate homeowners on prevention, provide ongoing monitoring if needed, and offer tailored advice based on each pest's habits. Whether it's a seasonal invader or a year-round threat, we apply proven, environmentally-conscious methods to protect your home and family.

Our Treatment Approach
We apply insect growth regulators and baits in key harborage areas for fast knockdown and prevention. Our approach includes an integrated pest management (IPM) strategy, using both physical and chemical solutions. We select products that are safe for families and pets while maximizing effectiveness. In addition, we seal cracks, improve sanitation recommendations, and follow up with monitoring or retreatment as needed to ensure pests stay gone for good.
