Are Cockroaches Returning Each Night?

One cockroach sighting may be easy to dismiss, but repeated night-time activity deserves attention—especially in kitchens, sculleries and cupboards. Also watch for activity close to food, sinks, pipes and other damp areas.

A few practical habits can help: seal stored food, wipe up crumbs and spills, keep cupboards orderly, and repair leaking taps or pipes promptly. These steps reduce easy access to food and moisture.

If sightings continue, professional control may be needed to address the problem properly. Critter Ridders Pest Control has served homes and businesses across greater Johannesburg since 2007—visit critterridders.co.za to enquire.

What Is on Your Kitchen Closing Checklist?

Stainless-steel surfaces may look ready for the next shift, but the everyday routine matters just as much. A clean, dry sink area, sealed ingredients and prompt spill clean-up can help remove the food, water and residue that attract pests.

Put these three checks on the daily kitchen checklist so they are easy for the whole team to remember. Is your kitchen team already ticking all three boxes?

Share this practical reminder with someone who manages a commercial kitchen, or contact Critter Ridders Pest Control when you need professional support.

Noticing More Ant Trails Indoors?

As Gauteng warms up, ant trails can become easier to spot indoors as ants search for food, water and shelter. They may enter through paving cracks, window frames, along skirtings or through gaps around plumbing.

Start by wiping up spills, storing food securely, clearing crumbs and fixing accessible water sources. It also helps to check common entry routes and seal obvious gaps where practical.

If the ants keep returning, avoid mixing pesticides or trying unsafe combinations. A professional assessment can help identify repeated activity and determine an appropriate treatment.

Have you noticed where the ants are getting in? Contact Critter Ridders Pest Control or visit critterridders.co.za to arrange an assessment.

Tiny Gaps Can Become Ant Entry Points

Ant activity indoors does not always begin with an obvious opening. A narrow gap beside a skirting, window frame or paving edge may be enough to create an entry route.

🔎 Start with a careful visual check in well-lit areas. Use a torch for corners and avoid pulling skirtings loose or moving heavy paving.

Next, remove crumbs, wipe up spills and keep dry food in sealed containers. Store pet food neatly and clean feeding areas after use.

Keep bins closed and clear leaves or debris from exterior edges near the building. Avoid disturbing damaged fittings; note the area for suitable maintenance instead.

Save this checklist for your next home inspection and share it with someone who may find it useful. If activity continues, contact Critter Ridders Pest Control for professional ant control across greater Johannesburg.

A Practical Pest Check for the Warmer Season

A well-maintained property can still have small gaps around doors and windows where pests may enter. During a professional general pest inspection, these access points are checked for signs of activity and areas that may need attention.

🔍 It is a practical step for homes and workplaces as we move further into the warmer season. Share this reminder with a property owner, or contact Critter Ridders Pest Control to arrange an inspection.

We’ve used Critters Ridders twice now for cockroach treatment, and the fact that we went back to them a second time probably says it all. Their stuff works. 😃Roxane is also such a pleasure to deal with. She’s always been incredibly understanding, accommodating and easy to communicate with, which I really appreciate. Nothing feels like a hassle, and the whole process is handled efficiently from start to finish. 💛Their pricing is also honestly one of the biggest reasons I recommend them. We’ve paid significantly more for pest control in the past, so finding a company that is both effective and genuinely fair and affordable has been such a win.Good service, good people, fair pricing and treatment that actually does what it’s supposed to do. I would absolutely use them again. 😊

A Cleaner Space Starts With Better Refuse Habits

Small housekeeping habits can play a valuable role in pest prevention. Clean, closed refuse areas and quick spill clean-ups help remove easy access to food and moisture.

✅ Keep bin lids fully closed and replace damaged containers. ✅ Use liners and remove refuse before bins become too full.

✅ Clean food and drink spills as soon as they happen. ✅ Remember hidden areas beneath desks, appliances, shelves and counters.

At home or work, make these checks part of the daily routine. Share this practical checklist with your family, colleagues or cleaning team.

If pest activity continues despite good housekeeping, contact Critter Ridders Pest Control for professional assistance.
