Common Cockroaches Found in Sheldon, CA

American Cockroaches

American cockroaches, sometimes called palmetto bugs, are large insects, growing between 1 ¼ to 2 ⅛ inches long. Their reddish-brown bodies and distinctive yellowish figure-eight pattern on their heads make them easy to identify. They thrive in warm, damp areas like basements and sewers. If not addressed, they can infest your Sheldon home.

German Cockroaches

German cockroaches are light brown and feature two dark lines along their backs. Their rapid breeding requires swift intervention. We apply an insect growth regulator to disrupt reproduction. Additionally, we use granular treatments to target other cockroach species. Customers must clean their homes and eliminate any food sources before we arrive.

Brown-Banded Cockroaches

Brown-banded cockroaches are frequently mistaken for German cockroaches because of their similar appearance. These pests prefer warmer environments and are usually found in high places such as ceilings, cabinets, and behind picture frames. Unlike other cockroach types, brown-banded cockroaches don’t need much moisture, making them harder to control with standard treatments.

Oriental Cockroaches

Oriental cockroaches are a dark brown to black color and reach about an inch in length. They thrive in damp, moist areas such as basements, crawl spaces, and beneath sinks. These roaches carry bacteria, posing health risks. Our pest control team is trained to quickly and effectively remove these pests from your property.

Turkestan Cockroaches

Turkestan cockroaches are a growing problem in Sheldon, where they thrive in the warm climate. These reddish-brown pests are often seen near lights at night and can make their way indoors through small gaps. Prompt action is necessary to prevent these pests from taking over your home.

Our Pest Treatment Process is Simple

Initial Treatment

Sheldon Pest Control provides a thorough inspection of your home to assess the cockroach infestation. We focus on common problem areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. For German cockroaches, we combine baits with growth regulators to stop reproduction. For other species like American cockroaches, we use effective granular treatments.

To maximize the treatment’s effectiveness, we suggest cleaning the areas before our arrival, including behind appliances. You should see less cockroach activity within a few days after the treatment.

Follow-Up Treatment

We provide consistent follow-up treatments to keep cockroaches away from your home. After the initial service, we evaluate whether further visits are needed. We come back within two weeks to track progress and apply any additional treatments. If a third visit is required, it will be offered at no extra charge.

Our treatments depend on the species of cockroach. For German roaches, we may apply growth inhibitors to halt reproduction. For other species like American or Australian cockroaches, we use effective granules. We’ll also offer tips on preventing re-infestation, like keeping your home clean and sealing entry points.

Quarterly Service

Our quarterly service is built to protect your home from cockroaches. Our team applies proven treatments to eliminate infestations and prevent them from coming back. Each visit generally takes around an hour, based on the severity of the infestation.

Every quarterly visit includes a thorough inspection and treatment. If German cockroaches are present, we’ll provide detailed advice on how to handle the issue. Sheldon Pest Control delivers reliable, effective pest control that keeps your home free from cockroaches year-round.
