TRAD’S PEST CONTROL
TRAD’S PEST CONTROL
Florida's heat and humidity make Jacksonville one of the worst cities in the country for cockroaches - multiple species, year-round activity, and rapid reproduction. One cockroach is rarely just one cockroach. Trad's uses green baits, crack-and-crevice treatment, and growth regulators to eliminate cockroaches at the source. And because cockroach control is included in every quarterly plan, you stay protected year-round - starting at $39/mo.
Jacksonville Cockroach Identification
Treatment differs significantly by species. German cockroaches require a completely different approach than American roaches - using the wrong method on the wrong species wastes time and money while the infestation grows.
The most difficult cockroach to eliminate - reproduces fast, hides deep, and quickly becomes resistant to sprays
The large roach Floridians call "palmetto bugs" - primarily an outdoor species that periodically invades homes
Why You Can't Wait
Cockroaches are nocturnal and hide from light - if you're seeing them during the day, the infestation is already large. Florida's climate means they breed and spread year-round with no seasonal slowdown. Here's what's at stake:
Our Treatment Approach
Trad's uses Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques - meaning we use the most targeted, effective, and lowest-risk treatment for the specific pest and situation. For cockroaches, that means no broad sprays and no guesswork.
We inspect harborage areas in wall voids, high-moisture zones, under appliances, inside cabinets, and along plumbing. We identify the species, the extent of the infestation, and the entry points and conditions attracting them. Every treatment plan starts here.
For German cockroaches: green bait gel applied to harborage areas and crack-and-crevice treatment with growth regulators (IGR) to break the breeding cycle. For American/palmetto bugs: exterior barrier treatment and perimeter bait to stop entry at the source. No broad sprays that scatter and cause resistance.
A single treatment handles the active infestation. But cockroach control is included in every Trad's quarterly plan - starting at $39/mo - so you stay protected year-round without paying for repeat one-time visits. Particularly important for German cockroaches in townhomes, condos, and apartments where re-infestation from neighboring units is possible. Save up to $150 on startup costs when you start a plan today.
Cockroach Control Is Included - At No Extra Cost
A one-time cockroach treatment eliminates the active infestation - but Jacksonville's year-round warmth and humidity mean new cockroaches are always looking for a way in. Re-infestation is common, especially in Florida. Without ongoing coverage, you're back to square one within months.
Every Trad's quarterly plan includes cockroach control as part of the standard service - along with 20+ other pests, green-certified interior baits, and our Pest Free Guarantee. You get more protection for less than the cost of repeated one-time visits.
