Hello Annette,
We had cockroaches in one of our labor housing units and were able to very easily clean them up with the use of our local pest exterminator. We have found it preferable to use a licensed exterminator so that the liability trail was very clean in regards to accountability since people are living in the units. It wasn't terribly expensive and I found that our staff time was more valuable doing other tasks. Good Luck! Kurt W. Alstede General Manager Alstede Farms, LLC P. O.

I had an elderly gentleman living in one of my wood cabins for free and he had cockroaches in the cabin. I do not want to move the next person in until the cockroaches are gone. I am in Michigan and can freeze the cabin, I am going to tear out the walls and carpet, but then how do I kill the cockroaches that are there? Also will the appliances still have live cockroaches in them if I move them to a barn that is not heated? There is no one living there now so I can also use any chemicals I want for now. Help please.
