Licensed professional treatment for cockroaches in Winnipeg and Manitoba. Transparent pricing. Thorough inspection. Guaranteed results.
Our licensed technician performs a systematic inspection using a high-powered flashlight, inspection mirror, and UV light. We examine behind and beneath all kitchen appliances (refrigerator, stove, dishwasher), inside cabinet hinges and drawer slides, behind outlet plates, under the sink, and along all pipe penetrations. Aggregation pheromone sticky monitors are placed in suspected harborage zones for 24–48 hours before treatment to map the infestation precisely.
Our technicians are trained to identify both obvious and subtle indicators of cockroaches activity:
APC uses a gel bait protocol — NOT blanket spraying. High-potency gel bait (imidacloprid, indoxacarb, or fipronil) is placed in rice-grain-sized amounts every 15–20cm in all harborage areas: under appliance motors, inside cabinet hinges, along pipe penetrations, and behind outlet plates. The bait is distributed through trophallaxis (food-sharing) and cannibalism of poisoned nestmates. Insect growth regulator (hydroprene) is applied to sterilize surviving females. Diatomaceous earth is applied to wall voids for long-term residual. Heavy infestations receive targeted perimeter spray as a supplemental knockdown.
Days 1–2: Significant reduction. Week 2: Follow-up gel bait replenishment. Week 4–6: Near-elimination confirmed. Multi-unit buildings require 3 visits over 3 months.
While professional treatment is required for active infestations, these steps help prevent future problems:
