Identifying cockroaches in Schertz

German roaches (small, light brown, two dark stripes behind head) infest kitchens. American roaches ("palmetto bugs," 1.5"+, reddish-brown) come in from sewers and outdoors.

Behavior & habitat

German roaches reproduce explosively — one female produces 30,000+ descendants per year. They hide in cracks during the day and forage at night near food, water, and warmth.

Why cockroaches are a problem here

Carry Salmonella, E. coli, and Staph; their droppings and shed skins are major asthma and allergy triggers, especially in children.

Schertz seasonal outlook: Cockroach activity is year-round, with the heaviest pressure during hot, humid weather and after heavy rain.

Why Schertz homes get cockroaches

Schertz sits in Guadalupe & Bexar Counties, where long triple-digit summers, mild winters, and sudden heavy rain give cockroaches a nearly year-round runway. Irrigation cycles, shaded landscaping, and standing moisture keep cockroach activity high even when the yard looks dry, which is why our Schertz programs run on a schedule instead of a single visit.

Where they get in around here

On Schertz routes, our technicians track cockroach activity back to sink and dishwasher plumbing chases, appliance motor housings and cabinet voids, door sweeps and utility line penetrations, and grease and moisture harborage behind kitchen fixtures. We treat those pressure points directly — targeted perimeter applications, void treatments, monitored bait or trapping placements, and exclusion work — so the population drops instead of shifting a few feet down the wall.

“Most Schertz cockroach calls we run aren't a mystery — the conditions are right and nobody closed the gaps. We find the pressure point, treat it, then come back and verify. If it moves again, so do we, on our dime.”
