It's Winter and the Greenwood district in North Seattle is battling
cockroach infestations. Residences and businesses are being overrun. One
thing to remember is that the yucky pests can be found year round. Many
Cities surrounding Seattle are affected and pest control businesses are
very much in demand. A Greenwood apartment owner got a call from the
manager that some units were cockroach infested. It only takes a few
cockroaches to up the chances that other units would be infested.This type
of infestation had to be dealt with immediately. The manager's assistant
got busy doing an online research for a pest control company that would
respond immediately. The decision was made to call AMPM Exterminators for
cockroach infestation services.
Cockroach pest control on the way:
Creepy cockroaches were crawling in the Greenwood area apartment complex.
The creepy crawlers goal is to find food, water and warm moist spots to
live in. Cockroaches are invading homes along with Commercial businesses at
a high rate of speed. The apartment owner's nightmare came true because now
it was reported that more than one tenant had cockroaches scurrying in all
directions. The final decision had already been made and an AMPM
Exterminators technician was on the way.
Positively identity the type of cockroach:
The Greenwood apartment owner and manager were advised to positively
identify the ugly bugs. The manager was certain it was German Cockroaches
that are common to the Pacific Northwest. The owner emailed pictures to
AMPM Exterminators to verify. Definitely a smart move because the AMPM
Exterminators technician positively identified the pests as German
Cockroaches. Important info for the professional from AMPM Exterminators.
Because now the technician could be prepared with the appropriate products
to provide the pest control services.
The apartment tenants report cockroach invasion:
It is the responsibility of the apartment tenants to notify the apartment
manager immediately about the cockroach problem. This type of infestation
can spread like wildfire and the nasty bugs reproduce rapidly. Tenants
rental agreements could include verbiage that management is responsible for
contacting a pest control company and incur the costs. In this case the
North Seattle, Greenwood area apartment owner, claimed financial
responsibility. It's important because the control professional from AMPM
Exterminators will not apply treatment unless the invoice is signed by the
building manager or owner. With that been done AMPM Exterminators was ready
to evict the unwanted guests.
How do cockroaches get inside:
Cockroaches are not only disgusting but terrifying to a lot of people. The
nasty bugs are relentless in hunting down accessibility to all types of
structures. For example, cracks, crevices and holes, to gain access to all
apartment units. Cockroaches can invade a neighbor's unit via electrical
outlets. Apartment dwellers share walls and along with it the pests. The
property owner, apartment manager and tenants were relieved to know help
was on the way. AMPM Exterminators technicians were ready to exterminate
the cockroach infestation. Cockroach infestations in apartment buildings
are not uncommon. The pests can invade an entire apartment building by
hitching a ride on shipping containers, grocery bags and cardboard boxes.
Which are ideal ways to access an apartment building and individual units.
Even used appliances are excellent sources for the dirty pests to gain
entry into a unit. Cockroaches reproduce at a high rate. If a cockroach
infestation is not reported immediately then the chances are high for other
units becoming infested. AMPM Exterminators quick arrival and preparedness
to do the job was a welcome sight.
Keep the apartments clean:
Number one on the Cockroach prevention tips list is to practice daily
sanitization practices. Kitchen and bathrooms have to be cleaned thoroughly
and this applies to all tenants. It can be an embarrassing situation to
report a cockroach infestation. But it would be worse to not use prevention
measures to reduce the chance of creating a widespread problem. Simple
things like taking the garbage out on a daily basis. Not leaving food out
anywhere in the apartment. After meals and snacks clean up the area.
Otherwise it's an open invitation for cockroaches to enjoy the smorgasbord.
The experienced technician at AMPM Exterminators explained that an
elimination of this type of infestation could require multiple visits. The
apartment manager was instructed to notify all tenants to follow all of the
preliminary steps for a successful extermination before treatment was
applied. Not complying would mean having to repeat the service. AMPM
Exterminators was very successful in taking care of this serious issue. The
Pest control professionals take great pride in the success rate of
eliminating the Cockroaches and are very thorough and diligent in the
process of exterminating the infestation. Cockroaches may have been
squatters in the Greenwood area Apartment building but were soon evicted by
AMPM Exterminators. Remember this pest control covers North, South, East
and West Seattle areas. Other cities such as, Renton, Kent, Fife, Puyallup,
Tacoma, Bellevue, Kenmore and many more. Who ya gonna call...cockroach
busters at AMPM Exterminators.
