German Roach Control
The German roach is most commonly found in multiple-family dwellings. The reason for this is that if every unit is not treated, they will multiply after they are exterminated from the unit being treated. They prefer food preparation areas, kitchens, and bathrooms because they favor warm humid areas that are close to food and water. German roaches do not enter the home from the outside but are brought in from places with an infestation. They are light brown with two dark stripes behind their head. We typically use a boric acid based bait and boric acid powder to deal with them. There are some occasions where we will ask you to remove items from cabinets and drawers so that we have access to the back portions. Since they reproduce rapidly it can be hard to get full control without treating the entire structure.
Keeping one’s house uncluttered and clean makes it simple to exterminate them with boric acid products. This is the only real reason they would persist after a thorough treatment.

We specialize in long-lasting treatments using products in a way that effectively kills bugs but has no impact on people. No contracts are needed. We treat more than once a year about as often as we skip years between treatments.
Aztec’s philosophy is to provide the most effective pest control service available, having the least negative impact on people and the environment here in Austin, Texas. We use a combination of the least toxic and most effective pest control products available.
We originally offered pest control using only natural, “organic” pest control products. While we still offer that service, we now combine those products with a low-toxicity, odorless, synthetic pyrethrin (crushed chrysanthemum flower), offering a longer-lasting residual effect.
