Cockroaches

Description
Cockroaches are a nocturnal household pest that will eat almost anything, even the grease on walls and the wallpaper. Only usually seen when lights are switched on suddenly in a room.
Treatment and control
General tips
When first noticed, clean kitchens and bathrooms thoroughly, paying particular attention to under and behind equipment, bath panels and cupboards to get rid of any eggs that have been laid in debris.
Spraying
Spray with Home Defence Ant Stop! Gun (contains deltamethrin) behind cookers, under fridges and washing machines, behind cupboards and along skirting boards. Spray into any cracks and crevices where pests may hide.
Always read the label. Use pesticides safely.
