Get rid of cockroaches in one visit
If you switch on the kitchen light at night and something runs behind the stove, what you saw is a small part of what's there. A technician reaches you the same day, identifies the type of cockroach first and treats it with no odor and no need to leave your home.

Small or large? The type changes the treatment
The first thing we ask on the phone is how long the cockroach is. A German cockroach is about 1.5 cm and lives inside the kitchen, while a drain cockroach can reach 4 cm and comes up from the sewer. If you see either kind in the middle of the day, their hiding places are crowded.
-
German cockroach: small, with two stripes
It's light brown, with two dark stripes on its back just behind the head. If you find it in the cutlery drawer or inside the microwave, it lives with you and isn't just passing through.
-
Drain cockroach: large and reddish brown
It comes out at night from the bathroom drain or the light well (the narrow air shaft inside the building), more often in hot weather. Sometimes it opens its wings and flies a short distance, which is what terrifies the kids.
-
Black specks like ground pepper
These are German cockroach droppings, and they collect at cabinet hinges and in the corners of drawers. If they leave a streak when you rub them with your finger, the activity is recent.
-
A brown egg case in a dark corner
The female German cockroach carries the case until shortly before it hatches, and it holds 30 to 40 eggs. The large kind glues its case in a corner and walks away, so you may find one under the bathroom shelf.
-
An oily smell in a closed cabinet
Open a cabinet door that hasn't been opened in a week and smell it. That musty odor shows up once the group gets large, and it clings to plastic containers.
Found one of these? Send us a photo and the technician will tell you what it is.
Send the photo on WhatsAppWhere are the cockroaches living in your apartment?
German cockroaches look for warmth and water near food, and they fit into a crack as thin as a coin. The large kind lives in damp places and travels through the drains.
- Cabinet hinges and under the sink
- Damp wood and a dripping pipe. This is where we find German cockroaches most often.
- The fridge motor and microwave
- The warmth inside the appliance makes young cockroaches grow faster, so we check it even when the kitchen is clean.
- Bathroom and kitchen drains
- The main route for drain cockroaches, especially if the cover is broken or has no mesh.
- The bathroom nobody uses
- The water in the toilet trap dries up after a while, which leaves the sewer open to the apartment. We see this often in the apartments of people working abroad and in vacation homes.
- The light well and stairwell
- In older buildings, the trash bin and cracked pipes create a complete habitat right under the bathroom windows.
- Grocery and drink cartons
- One egg case in the fold of a carton is enough to bring German cockroaches into a new apartment.
-
Asthma and allergies
Cockroach droppings and shed skin trigger allergies and asthma, especially in children. If someone at home coughs at night or gets short of breath, see a doctor and mention that you have cockroaches.
-
Bacteria on the kitchen counter
A cockroach that spent the night in the pipe comes out and walks on your countertop and the rims of your plates. Wash any uncovered dishes before you use them, and keep food scraps in a closed container.
-
A mild case doesn't stay mild
German cockroaches reach adulthood in about two months in warm weather, and a female produces several egg cases in her lifetime. The few you saw in March can be a whole kitchen full by July.
From the technician's notebook: The most common mistake we see: people spray over the gel after we leave. That makes cockroaches avoid the gel and ruins the treatment.
Why are the cockroaches still here after all that?
By the time we arrive, we're often the last attempt. These are the things people tried before calling us, and what actually happens with each one.
- A can of spray will clear the kitchen
- It kills the cockroach it soaks in front of you, and the rest flee to the next cabinet or the neighbors' apartment. Worse, the smell of the spray makes cockroaches avoid any bait placed afterward.
- Bleach in the drain kills them
- Bleach runs off with the water in minutes, and what's inside the pipe comes back. Mixed with muriatic acid or an acidic cleaner it gives off a choking gas, which is a real danger in a closed bathroom.
- Baking soda with sugar makes their stomachs burst
- There's no reliable scientific evidence that baking soda does this. A cockroach may come across it, but it never gets near the egg cases or the hiding places.
- Boric acid balls are the sure home remedy
- Boric acid does kill cockroaches, but the balls look like food, and a child or cat could eat them. Cockroaches also steer around large exposed amounts, so the effect is weaker than you'd imagine.
- Bay leaves in the drawers drive them away
- The smell may keep them away from that drawer for a while, but it kills nothing. The leaf dries out and the cockroach is still behind the hinge 10 cm away.
- Cockroaches only come to dirty homes
- Cleanliness reduces the food available, but it doesn't close the drain or stop a grocery carton. We often find German cockroaches in spotless kitchens.
Cockroach pest control is more than spraying
Most people call and ask for spraying, but spraying alone scatters German cockroaches. The small kind is treated with gel, the large kind is treated from the drains, and many apartments have both.
- 1
Identifying the type and the numbers
We open the kitchen cabinets, check behind the appliances and in the bathrooms with a flashlight and see where the black specks are. That decides how much gel goes where.
- 2
Special gel inside the cracks
Small dots at the hinges and behind the pipes, away from food surfaces. The cockroach eats it and goes back to its hiding place, and the effect reaches the others.
- 3
Concentrated spraying in the drains
Drains and pipe openings get a concentrated insecticide, because that's the large cockroach's route. We'll tell you if the cover needs a new mesh.
- 4
A growth regulator for the next generation
A product that stops the young that hatch after the visit from reaching breeding age. This is the part supermarket cans don't do.
- 5
The warranty certificate
You receive a certificate stating the type of cockroach, the treatment date and the 5-year warranty, along with some advice about the spots the technician noticed in your home.
Why is one visit enough?
The gel stays in the cracks after the technician leaves, and a cockroach that eats it passes the effect to the others in its hiding place. The growth regulator deals with whatever hatches after the visit, and the drains are treated the same day, so both kinds are finished without the technician needing to come back.
How to prepare before the technician arrives
- Empty the cabinet under the sink and put any uncovered food in airtight containers.
- Don't use any spray for a day before the appointment, and don't spray over the gel after the technician leaves, because that makes cockroaches avoid it and ruins the treatment.
- Wipe away the grease behind the stove and range hood, so the gel is the only food in front of the cockroaches.
- Throw out the empty cartons on top of the cabinets, because they're a ready-made place for eggs.
- If you have a bathroom nobody uses, pour a bucket of water into it before the appointment and repeat that every week so the drain trap doesn't dry out.
Your family comes first
The right product, at the right strength, in the right place is not the danger. The real danger is random spraying, kerosene and home-made mixtures.
-
Children and pregnancy
They can stay at home during treatment. If someone is pregnant or has a chest allergy, we choose a gentler product and method.
-
Cats, dogs and birds
We put away their food and water before treatment and stay clear of where they sleep. Fish tanks are covered and the air pump is switched off.
-
No odor
Every treatment is odor-free, and you do not need to leave home while we work.
From our customers
- Mona AdelCockroaches · Sheikh ZayedTranslated from Arabic
Honestly, I wasn't expecting this result. Cockroaches were showing up in the kitchen every day, especially at night, and now things are completely different. Thank you for your commitment and for the follow-up after the spraying.
At your service, ma'am, and thank you so much for your kind words. It always matters to us to be sure the problem is solved.
- Sara IbrahimGerman cockroaches · MohandessinTranslated from Arabic
I had really had enough of the small cockroaches in the kitchen. Every time they disappeared they came back again. After the visit and the follow-up I'm seeing a very clear difference. Truly, thank you for caring.
You're welcome, ma'am, it's our duty. What matters to us is treating the problem at its source, and if anything shows up, get in touch with us.

Hello, I have a problem with cockroaches in an apartment in Nasr City. I'd like to book.
Questions we hear every day
Can cockroaches be eliminated in one visit?
Yes, we finish the entire treatment in one visit. The gel and the growth regulator keep working after the technician leaves, so you don't need another appointment.
Do I have to leave the apartment during cockroach treatment?
No, you don't need to leave the apartment. The treatment has no odor and children can stay at home. If someone has asthma or is pregnant, tell the technician before he starts so he can choose a suitable product and method.
How much does cockroach control cost?
The price depends on the size of the place and how bad the infestation is, and the technician tells you the figure before he starts. Send the size and your area on WhatsApp and we'll get back to you.
I'm seeing cockroaches after the treatment. Is that normal?
Yes, it's normal to see a few in the first days. The gel makes them come out of hiding as they die. The main thing is not to spray them and not to wipe the gel spots with disinfectant.
How are large drain cockroaches treated?
They're treated from the drain itself, not from the bathroom floor. The technician sprays a concentrated insecticide into the drains and pipe openings, and a sound mesh on the drain cover closes that route.
The cockroaches are only in the kitchen. Do I have to treat the whole apartment?
In most cases, no, because German cockroaches concentrate in the kitchen and bathroom. The technician checks the other areas, treats wherever he finds activity and prices the job on its real size.
Is the gel safe in the kitchen?
Yes, when it's applied correctly, because it goes in small dots inside cracks, away from food surfaces. If you have a baby who crawls or a cat that gets into the cabinets, tell the technician so he can place the dots higher.
How should I choose a cockroach control company?
Choose a licensed company that asks what kind of cockroach you have before it talks about price. A company that uses the same spray for every kind won't solve a German cockroach problem. Safety Service is licensed by the Ministry of Health and gives you the warranty in writing.
How long is the cockroach treatment guaranteed?
The warranty lasts 5 years and is written on a certificate the technician gives you. If cockroaches come back during that period, we return and repeat the treatment at no cost to you.
If I call now, can you get here today?
Yes, we reach any governorate the same day and the line is open 24 hours. Tell us the address and where the cockroaches show up, and we'll give you the earliest appointment.
