Cockroach Control in Riyadh
Cockroaches hide in kitchens, bathrooms and drains, come out at night and breed quickly. Spraying the ones you can see rarely solves the problem. Eco Shield finds where they hide and how they get in, then treats the source.

Species
German and American Cockroaches
German Cockroach
Small (about 1.5 cm) and light brown. Lives indoors near food, water and warmth: kitchens, fridges, ovens and cabinets. It breeds faster than other common cockroaches, so early treatment matters.
American Cockroach
Large (about 4 cm) and reddish brown. Lives in drains, sewers and basements and enters through drains and gaps around pipes.
Good to know
Why Cockroaches are a Health Risk
Cockroaches move between drains, waste and food, so they can carry bacteria such as Salmonella onto food and kitchen surfaces. Their droppings and shed skins can also trigger allergies and asthma.

FAQ
Questions About Cockroach Control
Light infestations often clear with one treatment, with a follow-up visit if our team recommends it. Heavy infestations, especially German cockroaches in kitchens, need a short programme. Your technician confirms the plan after the inspection.
Baits and crack-and-crevice treatment usually need little preparation. Your technician tells you in advance if any room should stay closed, and for how long.
Seeing some cockroaches for a few days is normal while the treatment works, because they leave their hiding places. If you still see them after 10 days, contact us.
Household sprays kill the cockroaches you can see, but they rarely reach the hiding places and egg cases, so the problem comes back. Professional control combines inspection, baits, crack-and-crevice treatment and follow-up.
