I don’t know what to do .

Poor Lucas I hope it gets better! Cockroaches give me the creeps!

Ugh me too I feel so sad for him and I will removed his food at night from his cage

 

[Lucas2019]

I'd put bait traps where Lucas can't get to them

Thank you so much

it won’t have any chemicals coming out ?

The product (bait) is inside the plastic hut. It won´t come out if you just place them down where you want them to go.

I've been been using Terro traps for ants at Shawna's (and probably a others') recommendation and they've been great. I also have cats, so I definitely needed something they couldn't get into.

The insects just got into the plastic container.

traps for ants

I put ant traps out on my balcony over the summer, there were no issues with the doves or sparrows

Hopefully the cockroach doesn’t carry a poison particle into the bird cage.

I use them bait stations for ants and roaches (now more as a preventative measure not because we have insects anymore) in the tray of my bird cages and all over the house and I have had no issues whatsoever. I really can not be comfortable living in a house with mice, roaches or ants so I would rather keep them away than allow them to spread disease. I used so many of them bait stations and gel tubes when I first moved to the house I live in now as there were roaches partying all over the kitchen when the old people moved out and I am so grossed out by how filthy roaches are that I used the bait stations and the gel all over my house and I used way more of them than suggested. Bait stations now just live in the bottom tray of all my cages in the hopes that any roaches or ants that may venture into my house and into the bird cages looking for food scraps will be interested in the baits instead of my bird food- I have had no issues at all with either of my birds. Unless your bird is likely to eat a whole roach then I would think that you would be safe.

That's one thing I've always worried about...finding one of my boys nibbling on a dead roach before I found it!

Agree about cleanliness. My agent of choice is the non toxic AIL sprayed along the baseboards. No ants no roaches no anything!

I thought that was more for removing lice from aviary birds. Is the vetafarm AIL the one you use? I had a quick look at it just now and it does say it rids of many insects but roaches are not on the list. If it does work then I might buy some so my mum can stop complaining about not being allowed to use fly spray lol.

Ok! I’ll pick some up then. Thanks so much for the information!! I honestly was of the belief it was only for bird mites and lice.

Exterminator! They treat the outside perimeter. You can use glue traps in the house.

If you own, hire a Co to do the outside. If you rent, complain to the management Company.

They can use a bait inside nowhere near Lucas and you will be fine.

I don't know but if your in the United States call your local city, I know if you live close to a sewer hole or water, they will come out for free to investigate, if they see there sewers are an area that is owned by them they will take action right away to clean up the roast infestation and it's kinda free, you won't be charged, the city take care of it.
