Cockroaches have always been one of the most stubborn household pests, but in recent years, homeowners across India are noticing a sharp increase in infestations. At Aastha Pest Control, we receive thousands of calls every month from families struggling with sudden cockroach outbreaks—even in homes that were previously pest-free. This growing concern has made Cockroach Pest Control a top priority for both homeowners and businesses.
So, why are cockroaches increasing? And more importantly, how can you stop them effectively? Let’s break it down.

Why Cockroach Infestations Are Rising
1. Climate Conditions Favor Their Growth
Warmer temperatures and high humidity create the perfect environment for cockroaches to breed faster. Indian cities, especially coastal regions like Mumbai, experience climate conditions that allow cockroaches to multiply year-round. As temperatures rise, cockroach breeding cycles shorten, leading to quick and widespread infestation.
2. Urban Lifestyle & Waste Accumulation
Dense population, high-rise buildings, shared plumbing lines, and improper waste disposal help cockroaches spread rapidly. Even if your home is clean, cockroaches from neighboring premises can easily travel through drainage pipelines, sewage lines, cracks, and common walls.
3. Resistance to Over-the-Counter Sprays
Many homeowners rely on cheap sprays and gels available in the market. However, cockroaches have now developed resistance to common chemicals. This means DIY solutions only kill a few roaches, while the colony continues to grow. Proper General Pest Control becomes crucial to break the breeding cycle.
4. Hidden Breeding Areas
Cockroaches love hiding in warm, dark, moist spaces—kitchens, bathrooms, electrical appliances, drainage pipes, and cabinets. These areas often go unnoticed until the infestation becomes severe. Without professional inspection, it is difficult to identify and eliminate these breeding points.
Health Risks Linked to Cockroach Infestation
Cockroaches are not just a nuisance—they are dangerous carriers of bacteria and allergens. Their droppings, saliva, and shed skin can trigger asthma, allergies, food poisoning, and stomach infections. Families with children, elderly people, or pets must be extra cautious. That’s why regular Residential Pest Control by professionals is essential for long-term safety.
How to Stop Cockroach Infestation Effectively
To control cockroaches permanently, you need a scientific approach, the right chemicals, and expert techniques. At Aastha Pest Control, we follow an advanced 3-step method for safe and long-lasting results.
1. Professional Cockroach Pest Control Treatment
Our Cockroach Pest Control service uses odorless, gel-based and spray-based treatments that directly target cockroach colonies. The gel is applied in cracks, crevices, kitchen cabinets, and electrical points—areas where cockroaches hide the most. This treatment is safe for children, pets, and pregnant women.
Unlike DIY methods, our treatment eliminates both visible and hidden cockroaches, ensuring complete relief.
2. Herbal Pest Control for Chemical-Sensitive Homes
For families who prefer eco-friendly solutions, we offer Herbal Pest Control—a 100% safe and plant-based treatment option. Herbal solutions are ideal for homes with infants, elderly individuals, or people with allergies. It keeps cockroaches away without any harmful residues.
3. General Pest Control for Broader Prevention
Often, cockroach infestations come with other pests like ants, rodents, mosquitoes, and bed bugs. Our General Pest Control covers all these pests to prevent recurring infestations. A comprehensive preventive treatment ensures your home remains hygienic and pest-free throughout the year.
4. Targeted Treatments for Other Pests
Cockroaches rarely come alone. Therefore, Aastha Pest Control offers specialized services for:
- Ants Pest Control – eliminates sugar ants, red ants, and black ants
- Bed Bugs Pest Control – destroys eggs, larvae, and adult bed bugs
- Rodent Pest Control – removes rats and mice using safe baiting & traps

When these pests are eliminated, the chances of cockroach re-infestation also drop significantly.
Prevention Tips to Stop Cockroach Re-Infestation
While professional treatment is essential, maintaining hygiene helps prevent future infestations. Here are some simple tips from our experts:
Keep the kitchen clean
Wipe countertops, store food in airtight containers, and clean under appliances.
Fix leakages
Cockroaches thrive in moist areas. Repair leaking sinks, pipes, and taps.
Dispose of garbage daily
Avoid storing waste overnight. Use covered bins.
Seal cracks and entry points
