Awesome service from UrbanShield! Nick came around to my flat, super friendly bloke and got the job done properly. Haven’t seen a single cockroach since. Cheers mate, really appreciate it!

I would definitely recommend this company . We were overrun at my house with ants and made a call to Nick who luckily managed to get over to our place a couple of hours later . He was very professional with everything , thoroughly explained the process and the chemicals he was using . He gave a good spray around the house and garden about a month ago and haven't seen one ant since . Good price and great service all round .

General Pest Control Questions

  • Why is cockroach control important?

    Cockroaches spread bacteria, allergens, and foul odors. Professional control ensures a healthier environment and prevents rapid population growth.

  • How do professionals treat cockroach problems?

    Professionals use gel baits, targeted sprays, and insect growth regulators that are more effective and safer than store-bought sprays.

  • How can I prevent cockroach infestations?

    Keep kitchens clean, store food securely, remove rubbish regularly, and seal entry points.

  • Do cockroaches carry health risks?

    Yes. They carry bacteria and allergens that can cause asthma, food poisoning, and other health issues.

  • Why are cockroaches so hard to get rid of?

    They reproduce quickly, can survive harsh conditions, and hide in tiny cracks and crevices.

  • How can I tell the difference between German and Gisborne cockroaches?

    German cockroaches are small (about 1.5 cm), light brown with two dark stripes on their back, and usually found indoors in kitchens. Gisborne cockroaches are larger (up to 3 cm), dark brown with mottled patterns, and prefer outdoor areas but can invade houses.

  • Which cockroach species are common in New Zealand?
