How our five-step system treats businesses for cockroaches
The Terminix Commercial Five-Step System is a unique, proven approach to commercial cockroach control. It’s based on our specialized Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program, which helps neutralize the problem at the source.
Step 1
We start by immediately removing all accessible cockroaches with a vacuum, which helps drastically reduce the population.
Step 2
We then treat the inaccessible spots and deep harborages where cockroaches currently live and breed.
Step 3
Next, we preemptively treat the cracks and crevices where cockroaches will try to run and hide.
Step 4
We’ll then use bait that kills cockroaches at all life stages to help eliminate any remaining pests.
Step 5
Finally, we apply insect growth regulators (IGRs) to disrupt reproduction and help ensure long-term control.

Commercial cockroach hotspots: Where are roaches hiding in your business?
Storage rooms
Cardboard boxes and packed shelving offer ideal dark shelter and abundant nesting material.
Floor drains
Moisture accumulation and organic buildup attract roaches seeking water.
Breakrooms
Unsealed food containers, spilled beverages, and hidden crumbs in seating areas lure scavengers.
Waste disposal
Exterior trash receptacles create major pest attractants directly adjacent to your facility entrance points.
Utility closets
Dark, warm, and undisturbed spaces provide protected environments for egg-laying and nesting.

FAQs about commercial cockroach control
Commercial cockroach control pricing varies based on your facility's square footage, industry type, infestation severity, and required treatment frequency. Terminix offers customized quotes after a thorough inspection of your commercial property.
Roaches are drawn to commercial facilities in search of food, water, and warm shelter. Unsealed food supplies, excess moisture from plumbing or drains, cardboard packaging, and unmaintained waste areas create ideal conditions for infestation.
Over-the-counter DIY treatments often fail in commercial environments because they address only visible pests, not hidden harborage or egg capsules. Professional commercial roach control helps ensure proper application, regulatory compliance, and complete colony elimination.
Most commercial operations require ongoing monthly or quarterly pest control services. High-risk environments like restaurants or food handling facilities often benefit from more frequent routine inspections and maintenance.
