Are you worried about rats and mice in your home?

Signs to look for if you suspect you may have a mice or rat infestation can include:

Does a rat infestation mean my property is unclean?

Rats are often associated with living in dirty, poor conditions such as sewers, although this doesn’t necessarily mean your garden isn’t an ideal environment, or even your home. Rats can find shelter underneath your shed and even bury themselves in compost heaps. Rats themselves are far from dirty, as they spend a lot of time trying to keep themselves clean, washing themselves regularly and incessantly.

How rodents can be treated

Rats are intelligent creatures, and quickly wise up to any traps or poisons being used. It takes two visits to treat a rodent infestation, as initially the controller will need to attend site to access the work required, using bait or sticky boards, or in the case of squirrels, trapping them.  Our qualified pest controllers will ensure advice is given to prevent any further infestation, and will return to remove any remaining baits, boards or traps, and any dead bodies.

Types of cockroaches that are treated by TDC Pest Control

There are two types of cockroaches treated by our pest controllers:

Oriental cockroaches are smooth with a black coloured body. They have no wing base and measure at approximately 2.5cm. Oriental cockroaches are often found in terraced housing, infecting entire blocks of properties as the move throughout the beams and rafters.

German cockroaches are light brown in colour with a wing base, and are approximately 1.5cm in length. These types of cockroaches are usually found in warm, moist environments, such as kitchens and bathrooms.

The life cycle of the German cockroach

The German cockroach has three life stages typical of insects with an incomplete metamorphosis: The egg, nymph and the adult. The typical life cycle of a German cockroach is completed in approximately 100 days, however factors are dependent on this, including: temperature, nutritional status and strain differences.

Egg – The eggs are carried in an egg case by the female just before hatch occurs, this is called the ootheca. A typical egg case contains between 30-40 eggs and has the appearance of a small, brown purse-shaped capsule. Measuring at about 8mm long, when the eggs have hatched the nymphal stage will begin.

Nymph – Nymphs are dark brown to black in colour, with distinct, dark parallel bands. At this stage, nymphs do not have wings, although at room temperature they can complete development in approximately 60 days.

Adult – An adult is 10-15mm long, and like the nymph, continues to have two distinct parallel bands running through the length of the pronotum. The male cockroach can be distinguished by the appearance of a thin, slender body; The female has a more stout appearance, with their entire abdomen covered by tegmina.

TDC Pest Fact: Adult German cockroaches can live up to one year.

Can cockroaches fly?

Many species of cockroaches have wings but not all are good at flying. There are several species in which use their wings to glide from higher altitudes to lower surfaces, with a number of other species capable of flying short distances. German cockroaches in particular have fully developed wings, but they do not fly. Equally, oriental cockroaches do not have a winged base in order to fly, and prefer to move through the beams and rafters in a property, infecting entire blocks.
