Cockroaches
Cockroaches are a very common pest in Cairns homes due to the favourable temperatures we experience here in North Queensland. They will often live quite comfortably in your kitchens, bathrooms and other rooms throughout your home, and often you will only notice them at night when you get up in the early hours. Cockroach can carry certain diseases and also cause asthma problems for some.
