Cockroach Extermination — Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions our licensed exterminators receive about cockroach extermination in New York City, including costs, treatment timelines, preparation steps, and what results to expect.
How much does cockroach extermination cost in NYC?
Cockroach Extermination is billed at $249/hour flat — the same fully inclusive rate we charge for every pest service. The $249/hour covers all labor, EPA-registered products, treatment methods, entry-point sealing, written plan, and the free re-treatment visit if pests come back. There are no per-room fees, no chemical surcharges, no trip fees, and no contract. You pay only on completion of the work — nothing upfront, no deposit, no card on file. Billed in 15-minute increments after the first hour. It's the only fully inclusive hourly exterminator pricing model in NYC, and it almost always costs less than the inflated flat-rate quotes built around a worst-case version of your problem.
How long does cockroach treatment take to work?
You'll see a significant reduction in cockroach activity within 1-2 weeks after treatment. Complete elimination typically takes 2-4 weeks with follow-up treatments. Severe infestations in multi-unit buildings may require 4-6 weeks.
Are cockroach treatments safe for pets and children?
Yes. We use EPA-approved products and targeted application methods that minimize exposure. Gel baits are placed in cracks and crevices away from contact areas. We'll provide specific safety instructions for your facility.
Why do cockroaches keep coming back?
In NYC, cockroaches often re-enter from neighboring units, building infrastructure, or deliveries. That's why we recommend ongoing maintenance plans and work with building management for comprehensive treatment.
Do you treat restaurants and commercial kitchens for cockroaches?
Yes. We specialize in NYC DOH-compliant commercial cockroach treatments for restaurants, bakeries, and food service businesses. We work around your schedule and provide documentation for health inspections.
