You’ll finally have peace of mind knowing your Ehren home is roach-free. No more midnight kitchen encounters, no more embarrassment when guests visit, and no more health concerns about bacteria and allergens spreading through your living spaces.
Our targeted treatments eliminate entire roach colonies, not just the ones you see. Within days, you’ll notice the difference as our professional baiting systems and insect growth regulators stop reproduction cycles completely.
Your family deserves a clean, safe environment. That’s exactly what you get with our comprehensive roach control that keeps working long after we leave.
We know Ehren’s unique roach challenges inside and out. As a family-run business, we’ve built our reputation on honest service and real results throughout Hernando County.
You work directly with our owner, not a rotating cast of technicians. We answer our phones 24/7, provide most quotes over the phone, and respond within 24 hours because your roach problem can’t wait.
Our state certifications and over 100 five-star reviews prove we understand Florida’s roach species better than anyone. From German roaches hiding in your kitchen to palmetto bugs entering through plumbing, we’ve seen it all and know exactly how to eliminate them.
First, we inspect your Ehren property to identify roach species, entry points, and breeding areas. German roaches require different treatment than palmetto bugs, so accurate identification is crucial for success.
Next, we apply targeted baiting systems and professional-grade treatments to eliminate existing roaches and their eggs. Our insect growth regulators stop reproduction cycles while our crack-and-crevice treatments reach hidden colonies.
Finally, we identify entry points and provide ongoing prevention strategies. You’ll receive follow-up visits to ensure complete elimination and prevent future infestations from Florida’s year-round roach pressure.

Your roach control service includes species identification, targeted baiting systems, crack-and-crevice treatments, and insect growth regulators. We treat kitchens, bathrooms, attics, and crawlspaces where roaches hide and breed.
In Ehren’s humid climate, roaches stay active year-round unlike northern areas where cold temperatures provide natural control. Our treatments account for Florida’s unique challenges, including palmetto bugs entering through plumbing and German roaches thriving in warm indoor spaces.
You also receive prevention education specific to Florida homes, entry point identifying recommendations, and ongoing support. We explain why you might see roaches in a clean house and provide kitchen-specific prevention strategies that work in our subtropical environment.
Professional gel baiting is the fastest way to eliminate German roaches in Ehren. Unlike sprays that only kill roaches on contact, gel baits are carried back to colonies where they eliminate entire populations including eggs and nymphs.
German roaches don’t respond to granular baits, so gel applications in cracks and crevices where they hide are essential. We combine this with insect growth regulators that sterilize females and prevent reproduction.
DIY treatments rarely work because German roaches have high reproductive potential and shorter gestation periods than other species. Professional-grade products and proper placement are crucial for eliminating these persistent pests in Florida’s warm climate.
In Florida, “water bug” is often used to describe large American cockroaches, also called palmetto bugs. True water bugs are aquatic insects that don’t typically infest homes, while what people call “water bugs” are actually cockroaches.
American cockroaches can grow up to two inches long and are reddish-brown with a yellowish figure-eight pattern behind their heads. They’re often found near plumbing and in damp areas, which is why they’re confused with water bugs.
These large cockroaches enter homes through gaps around doors, windows, and plumbing connections. Unlike German roaches that live indoors, American cockroaches prefer outdoor environments but will invade homes seeking food, water, and shelter during extreme weather.
Even clean homes in Ehren can have roach problems because Florida’s warm, humid climate supports large outdoor populations that continuously pressure homes for entry. Roaches can squeeze through tiny cracks and arrive in grocery bags, packages, or through plumbing connections.
German roaches often hitchhike into homes on deliveries, cardboard boxes, or used appliances. Once inside, they can establish populations in wall voids, behind appliances, and in areas you can’t easily clean or access.
Palmetto bugs may enter through dried-out drain traps, gaps around pipes, or damaged weather stripping. In Ehren’s subtropical environment, these outdoor roaches actively seek indoor shelter, especially during hot summers or heavy rains when outdoor conditions become less favorable.
Professional roach baiting systems use attractive gel formulations that roaches consume and carry back to their colonies. The active ingredients eliminate not just the feeding roach, but spread throughout the population through grooming and cannibalistic behavior.
In Florida’s climate, we place baits in strategic locations where roaches hide and travel – behind appliances, in wall voids, and along plumbing runs. These placements remain effective longer than surface sprays and continue working even in high humidity.
We combine baits with insect growth regulators that prevent juvenile roaches from reaching reproductive maturity. This integrated approach eliminates existing populations while preventing new generations, providing long-term control that’s essential in Florida’s year-round roach environment.
Florida kitchen roach prevention starts with eliminating water sources since our humid climate already provides ideal breeding conditions. Fix leaky pipes immediately, wipe down sinks after use, and ensure good ventilation to reduce moisture buildup.
Store all food in airtight containers, clean up crumbs and spills immediately, and take garbage out regularly with tight-fitting lids. Pay special attention to areas around appliances where grease and food particles accumulate – these are prime German roach breeding spots.
Seal cracks around plumbing, install door sweeps, and caulk gaps around windows. In Florida’s subtropical climate, even small openings provide entry points for roaches seeking air conditioning and food sources. Regular professional treatments provide additional protection against outdoor roach pressure.
In Ehren’s warm, humid climate, professional roach treatments typically provide 60-90 days of protection, though results vary based on roach species and infestation severity. Florida’s year-round pest pressure requires more frequent treatments than northern climates where winter provides natural control.
German roach treatments often show results within days as baits eliminate colonies, while palmetto bug control may take longer since these outdoor roaches continuously pressure homes for entry. Follow-up treatments ensure complete elimination and prevent recolonization.
We recommend quarterly maintenance treatments in Florida to stay ahead of roach populations. This proactive approach costs less than reactive treatments and provides consistent protection against the constant pest pressure that comes with our subtropical environment.
