by | Sep 7, 2022 | Blog, Uncategorized

G’day, Newcastle folks! As the mercury rises, so does the activity of our least favourite house guests – cockroaches. Yep, these little blighters love the Aussie summer as much as we do. But don’t fret; we’re here to arm you with all the know-how to keep these critters in check. Let’s dive into how you can enjoy a cockroach-free summer in our beautiful Newcastle.

Why Cockroaches Love Newcastle Summers

  • Warmth and Humidity: These conditions are like a beach holiday for cockroaches.
  • Abundant Food Sources: With more outdoor activities and open windows, these pests have a buffet of options.
  • Breeding Season: Like a love song at a summer fest, the warm weather gets these pests in the mood for multiplying.

Identifying the Problem

  • Spotting Signs: Look for droppings, egg cases, or the roaches themselves (usually at night).
  • Common Types in Newcastle: The Australian, American, and German cockroaches – sounds like a UN meeting, but far less diplomatic!

DIY Prevention Tips

  • Keep It Clean: Regular housekeeping can keep these pests at bay. Remember, cleanliness is next to cockroach-free-ness!
  • Seal Them Out: Fill cracks and crevices, and fix any screens with holes. Think of it as setting up a ‘No Entry’ sign.
