If you are preparing your home for sale, securing a clean, pest-free status is a critical financial step. During pre-sale home inspections, a single sign of active cockroach nesting can scare away potential buyers, delay real estate closings, or result in thousands of dollars in lost sale value.

They inspect dark corners, crawlspaces, attic joints, plumbing stacks, and cabinet hinges. If they spot live bugs or telltale droppings, it is noted on the official inspection report, immediately threatening the transaction.
Applying runny, dark gel baits or spraying baseboards with traditional chemical pesticides is highly problematic during open houses. Scented chemical sprays leave strong, warning odors that raise instant red flags for buyers. Gel baits melt and run under house heat, leaving dark, greasy stains on expensive kitchen woodwork that scream “active infestation.”
