What this ZIP means for pests

Older buildings have more ways in and more ways through. Sixty years of added plumbing and wiring leaves penetrations that were never sealed properly, and those are the routes between units as well as into them.

A shared wall makes the population the building's, not the unit's. Treating one home while the ones either side go untreated is why the same job gets done twice.

What is stored matters more in dense housing. Cardboard, stacked boxes and things kept in shared storage give cockroaches exactly the dry, dark, undisturbed harbourage they need, and it is usually a few feet from a kitchen.

Reporting that the neighbours have it too is the single most useful thing a caller can say, because it moves the question from one kitchen to the structure.

What a technician looks at first

Under and behind the kitchen appliances, the void around the sink plumbing, and the points where services cross into the next unit.

Then whether the same sign shows up next door — that answer decides the scope of everything else.
