East Texas humidity makes Crockett an ideal environment for two cockroach species: the German cockroach (Blattella germanica) and the American cockroach (Periplaneta americana). German roaches are the smaller, tan-striped species that infest kitchens and bathrooms and reproduce so rapidly that a handful of roaches becomes thousands within months. American roaches are the large ‘palmetto bugs’ that enter homes from drains and exterior areas.
Understanding the difference matters because treatment differs. Our blog post on German vs. American roach control explains the biology and why gel baiting, void treatment, and sanitation work where spray-only approaches fail. Critter Gitters treats both species using EPA-registered products and IPM (integrated pest management) protocols.
For German roaches: we apply gel bait in wall voids, under appliances, and inside cabinets combined with an insect growth regulator (IGR) that breaks the breeding cycle. For American roaches: perimeter treatment, drain treatment, and exclusion of entry gaps around pipes and doors.
A single treatment rarely eliminates a heavy German roach infestation — follow-up visits 2–4 weeks later confirm elimination and address any surviving egg cases. Our recurring quarterly protection plans keep roach pressure at zero for Crockett homes and businesses.
