Seeing roaches in daylight is a late-stage sign, not an early one. All Over Pest Control sends certified technicians who inspect first and treat the actual breeding zones, not just the kitchen floor. We'll point out any leak or damp spot contributing to the infestation, since fixing it extends how long treatment lasts.
We identify German versus American cockroach activity before choosing a bait formulation, because the two species respond to completely different attractants. Bait rotation also prevents roaches from developing avoidance behavior to a single formulation over repeated visits. Bait rotation also prevents roaches from developing avoidance behavior to a single formulation over repeated visits.
We carry the licensing Novato, CA requires for structural pest work, plus full insurance, and we'll show documentation any time you ask. We keep license renewals current year over year, not just at initial hiring.
Roach infestations spread fast, so we prioritize routing and usually reach Novato, CA addresses same-day. Same-day routing works because technicians are already stationed across Novato, CA, not dispatched from a single central office.
We carry IGR formulations that sterilize the next generation, plus crevice tools that reach voids a generic sprayer can't touch. Equipment gets recalibrated between jobs so bait concentration stays consistent from one property to the next.
Every service below targets a different stage of a roach infestation, from active breeding to long-term prevention. Every technician carries a UV light for spotting egg casings and fecal trails invisible under normal lighting. We check under appliances and inside cabinet voids with UV inspection tools most homeowners never think to use.
Gel bait gets placed exactly where roaches travel — behind appliances, inside cabinet hinges, along baseboard gaps — so the colony poisons itself. 
IGR treatment disrupts the reproductive cycle so surviving roaches can't produce viable offspring, which is what actually ends an infestation long-term.
Fine dust applied deep into wall voids and utility penetrations reaches roaches hiding in spaces a spray bottle can't access.
German roaches cluster near moisture and food, so kitchen and bathroom treatment focuses on under-sink plumbing, dishwasher motors, and cabinet toe-kicks. 
Since American roaches frequently come from outside, we treat drains, exterior foundation gaps, and perimeter vegetation in addition to indoor baiting.
We don't call a roach job finished after one visit. A follow-up checks monitor stations and adjusts bait placement if any activity remains.
A quick call to +1-844-564-2570 lets dispatch flag urgency, especially if you're seeing roaches during the day, which usually means a larger colony.

Yes, gel bait is placed in cracks and voids kids and pets don't access, and it's EPA-registered for residential use.
Some activity right after treatment is normal. The bait takes time to work through the colony before die-off becomes visible.
No, German roaches cluster indoors near moisture while American roaches often enter from outside, so treatment locations and products differ.
Roaches can migrate from an infested neighboring unit. We'll note it during inspection and recommend added exclusion if that's the case.
We back our roach work with a guarantee window; if the colony isn't controlled in that time, we return at no charge.
