Hiring a roach exterminator can seem disruptive and expensive but if your gut’s telling you it’s time; you’ll thank yourself for doing it sooner rather than later.

And with the right information, it’s not as bad as you think. Here are all the details and tips you need to hire a cockroach exterminator, including how to prepare yourself and your home and what to expect from a professional cockroach treatment. Let’s get started!

When to Call An Exterminator for Roaches

Seeing that first cockroach is a shock, especially if you’ve never dealt with these bugs before. If you’re lucky and you’ve only got a few stragglers to deal with, you can probably handle it on your own. But in most cases, seeing one or two cockroaches tells you that there are more (maybe lots more) hiding nearby. You might even have a hidden roach infestation on your hands.

Watch out for these other signs that usually mean it’s time to call a roach exterminator:

• Lots of dead roaches
• A gross, musty smell
• Cockroach droppings

Exterminator for Roaches

You might be hesitant to make the call, but when it’s time to get serious about killing roaches, it’s the single best choice you can make to get rid of an infestation. And the sooner you call, the sooner you’ll get rid of the bugs — and the easier it will be on your wallet.

How Much Does an Exterminator Cost for Roaches?

The obligatory non-answer is: “It depends.” But you want to know if you’re getting a good deal (or a good exterminator — someone who knows what they’re doing will charge for the work they know they’re going to cover).

The cost of cockroach control could be as little as £100 or more than £300, depending on what’s involved. Sometimes, the first visit is only the inspection, which could cost £80–100. What you pay for professional roach extermination in the end depends on the size of your home, the size of the infestation and the type of cockroach. Peridomestic species (indoor and outdoor) cost more to treat than strictly-domestic roaches.
