Professional cockroach treatment for your property
Repeated sightings in a kitchen, bathroom or around appliances can indicate activity beyond the cockroaches you see. Our cockroach exterminators explain the proposed treatment, how to prepare and what to do afterwards.
Our cockroach treatment methods
Professional gel bait
Gel bait is placed in suitable locations where cockroaches are active. Cockroaches feed on the bait, which takes effect over time.
Leave the bait undisturbed and follow the technician’s cleaning instructions. Tell us about any sprays or other products already used, as these may affect the proposed treatment.
Targeted spraying
Where appropriate, professional insecticide is applied to selected areas as part of the agreed treatment.
The method depends on the cockroach species, activity and property conditions. We explain any preparation, access and re-entry requirements before the work takes place.

A customer’s experience with cockroach treatment
Ivan Gelov describes cockroach treatment at his property and the advice provided by Toxic Respond.
Read reviews on Google →View review on Google ↗I couldn’t be happier with the service provided. Their team was friendly, professional, and genuinely eager to help. They quickly scheduled a visit, and the specialist arrived on time, thoroughly assessing the problem with cockroaches. Not only did they treat the immediate issue, but they also provided helpful tips to prevent future problems. The entire process was hassle-free, and I was impressed by their attention to detail.
Signs you may have cockroaches
- Live cockroaches, particularly after dark.
- Small droppings around cupboards, appliances or sheltered areas.
- Egg cases and shed skins.
- Repeated activity near food, water or warm equipment.
If you are unsure what you have found, send a clear photograph if possible and tell us where it was seen.
German and Oriental cockroaches
German cockroaches are often associated with warm indoor areas, including kitchens and spaces around appliances. Oriental cockroaches are larger and darker, and are often found in cooler, damp locations such as basements and service areas.
Identification helps determine the appropriate treatment. A photograph can help us discuss the problem before booking.

Preparing for cockroach treatment
Follow the preparation instructions supplied for your appointment.

After your cockroach treatment
Continue the hygiene measures recommended by the technician, while leaving gel placements and treated locations undisturbed for the advised period.

Cockroach control FAQs
How much does cockroach treatment cost in London?
Our whole-property treatments start from £200 for a one-bedroom property, £240 for a two-bedroom property, £280 for a three-bedroom property, £320 for a four-bedroom property and £360 for a five-bedroom property. For larger properties or business premises, request a quote.
Is gel bait or spraying better?
The appropriate method depends on the cockroach species, activity and conditions at the property. We explain the proposed approach and any preparation requirements before booking.
Will I still see cockroaches after treatment?
Activity may continue while the treatment takes effect. Follow the aftercare instructions and contact us if activity persists or increases. We will explain what to expect for your treatment.
Do I need to leave the property?
Access and re-entry requirements depend on the method used. Follow the instructions provided for your appointment, including arrangements for children and pets.
Can I clean after cockroach treatment?
Continue normal hygiene where permitted, but do not remove gel bait or clean treated locations until advised. The technician will explain which areas need to remain undisturbed.
Can cockroaches come from neighbouring flats?
Cockroaches can move through shared building routes. Tell us about known activity in neighbouring properties so we can discuss any coordination needed with a landlord or managing agent.
Why do I have cockroaches if my home is clean?
Cockroaches can be introduced with belongings or move from other parts of a building. Good hygiene supports control, but a sighting does not by itself establish how they entered.
Do you treat individual rooms?
We exclusively offer whole-property treatments. Product application remains targeted to appropriate locations according to the treatment plan.
