Expert Cockroach Treatment Service Covering Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

Fast, Discreet & Family-Run Pest Control You Can Trust

Cockroaches are among the most disturbing and unhygienic pests found in UK homes and businesses. If you’ve spotted one, there are likely many more hiding nearby. At Malvern Pest Control, we offer fast, effective and discreet cockroach treatments in Malvern, and across Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Gloucestershire.

As a family-run local pest control business, we understand how stressful a cockroach infestation can be. Our experienced team uses professional, safe methods to eliminate all stages of cockroach development—from eggs to adults—quickly and efficiently.

Why Cockroach Control Is Essential

Cockroaches are more than just unpleasant—they are a serious health hazard, especially in kitchens, food storage areas, and commercial premises.

• Health Risks: Cockroaches can spread harmful bacteria such as Salmonella, E. coli, and dysentery, as well as trigger asthma and allergies.

• Rapid Reproduction: A single female can produce hundreds of offspring in a few weeks.

• Nocturnal & Elusive: Cockroaches hide in cracks, behind appliances, and in drains, making them hard to detect and even harder to eliminate without professional help.

• Legal Risk for Businesses: In food or hospitality settings, even one sighting can lead to fines, closure, or damage to your reputation.

Whether you’ve seen one cockroach or several, early intervention is crucial to prevent a full-blown infestation.

Common Signs of a Cockroach Infestation

Cockroaches are most active at night and often go unnoticed during the day. Look out for these signs:

• Live Cockroach Sightings: Often in kitchens, bathrooms, or near warm appliances.

• Droppings: Resembling black pepper or coffee grounds.

• Smear Marks: Dark, greasy smears along skirting boards, tiles, or worktops.

• Unpleasant Odour: A strong, musty smell is common in established infestations.

• Egg Casings (Oothecae): Brown, capsule-like egg cases found in hidden areas.

• Shed Skins: As cockroaches grow, they shed their skin—often found behind appliances or in cupboards.

If you’ve noticed any of these signs, call Malvern Pest Control for a free site survey and professional advice.

Our Proven Cockroach Treatment Process

At Malvern Pest Control, we follow a thorough, step-by-step process to ensure complete eradication and lasting results:

1. Free Site Survey

We begin with a detailed inspection of your home or business to confirm the presence of cockroaches, identify the species, and locate harbourage points and attractants.

2. Targeted Insecticide Gel Baiting

For most infestations, we use professional gel bait that cockroaches consume and carry back to the colony, wiping out even hidden individuals and eggs.

3. Residual Insecticide Treatment

In more severe cases, we apply a residual spray to key areas, including under appliances, behind cupboards, and entry points. This provides long-lasting protection against further activity.

4. Crack & Crevice Treatment

We use specialist equipment to treat hard-to-reach areas like skirting boards, wall voids, and pipework where cockroaches tend to hide.

5. Follow-Up Visits

Depending on the level of infestation, follow-up treatments may be required to ensure complete elimination. We return promptly to assess and retreat if needed.

6. Ongoing Advice & Prevention

We offer expert guidance on keeping cockroaches away, including hygiene tips, proofing, and maintenance suggestions tailored to your property.

Common Cockroach Species We Treat

There are several cockroach species in the UK—our technicians are trained to identify and treat all of them:

• German Cockroach: Small, fast breeders often found in kitchens and bathrooms.

• Oriental Cockroach: Larger and prefers cooler, damp environments like basements and drains.

• American Cockroach: Rare, but often seen in larger commercial or industrial buildings.

• Brown Banded Cockroach: Prefers dry environments and is usually found higher up in cupboards or behind furniture.

Correct identification is key to applying the most effective treatment.

How to Prevent Cockroach Infestations

Once your home or business is clear of cockroaches, it’s important to take preventative steps:

• Maintain Cleanliness: Clean up food debris, especially in kitchens and behind appliances.

• Seal Entry Points: Fix gaps around doors, pipes, and vents.

• Store Food Properly: Keep food in sealed containers and empty bins regularly.

• Avoid Clutter: Cockroaches love dark, undisturbed areas—minimise storage boxes or unused items.

• Check Deliveries: Especially in commercial kitchens, cockroaches can enter through boxes or stock.
