I have a roach problem in my apartment walls

Question: Can you control a roach problem in a single apartment unit if other apartments still have roaches?

Answer: That depends on the level of infestation. These pests can move from apartment to apartment. The small German roaches can travel inside the walls and move from one unit to another. It is sometimes necessary to treat the voids inside of the walls to block their movements.
