Cockroach & Roach Control | Albany, NY | Mike & Son’s

Cockroaches are one of the most difficult pest infestations to eliminate — and one of the most important to address quickly. In Albany, NY homes and businesses, German cockroach infestations can go from a few insects to thousands within weeks. Cockroaches contaminate food preparation surfaces, spread salmonella and E. coli, and produce allergens that trigger asthma attacks, particularly in children. They hide in cracks, behind appliances, inside walls, and inside electronics — emerging primarily at night and making the full scope of an infestation difficult to gauge from surface observations alone.

Over-the-counter roach products — sprays, bombs, and grocery store bait traps — typically provide temporary suppression at best. German cockroaches in particular develop resistance to common insecticides rapidly, and the population can rebound quickly after partial treatment. Effective professional cockroach control uses a combination of targeted baits, insect growth regulators, and residual treatments in the specific harborage areas where roaches live and breed, cutting off the population at its source.
