Cockroach Extermination

Fast, effective cockroach elimination for homes and businesses. We don't just kill roaches โ€“ we eliminate infestations completely.

Cockroach Infestations Are Serious

Cockroaches aren't just disgusting โ€“ they're dangerous. They spread bacteria, trigger asthma attacks, and contaminate food. Worse, if you see one roach, there are likely hundreds hiding in your walls.

At Matar Pest Control, we specialize in complete cockroach elimination. Our treatment targets roaches at every life stage โ€“ eggs, nymphs, and adults โ€“ so they don't come back.

๐Ÿšจ Health Dangers of Cockroaches

  • Spread E. coli, Salmonella, and 30+ other bacteria
  • Trigger asthma attacks, especially in children
  • Cause allergic reactions from droppings and shed skins
  • Contaminate food and cooking surfaces
  • Carry parasitic worms and pathogens
