Our work in Vincennes
Cockroaches in one kitchen in Vincennes, and soon next door? Our technicians cover the whole town (94300) and the surrounding area in Val-de-Marne, with the same rule: find the source before treating, then send the photo report the same day.
For residents, the infestation starts the evening a cockroach runs across the worktop. For the building, it started long before: a warm rubbish chute, a riser running alongside the hot-water pipes, a damp bin room. These service areas give cockroaches warmth, water and food, plus a direct route to every kitchen.
Val-de-Marne, where our head office is based, alternates suburban streets, 1960s-70s tower blocks and food hubs around Rungis. Oriental cockroaches like damp basements and drains, German cockroaches prefer kitchens, and the banks of the Marne and the Seine remain rodent country. These local features guide the inspection in Vincennes, as they do across the rest of the département.
We find the source before we treat
The Repère Protocol always follows the same order: find where the pests live, treat right there, check with monitoring traps, then fill the gaps and advise the occupants.
- 01
Locate
Torch inspection of service areas, borescope in risers where needed, monitoring traps in every area and a hotspot map.
- 02
Treat
Gel bait and growth regulator in chutes, risers and bin rooms, dry steam on soiled surfaces; secure bait stations in cellars and car parks for rodents.
- 03
Check
Follow-up visit as set out in the protocol: traps read area by area, another treatment wherever activity continues.
- 04
Prevent
Penetrations and sleeves sealed, before/after photo report, upkeep advice for the caretaker and instructions for residents.

Bin rooms and rubbish chutes need watching
The règlement sanitaire départemental (local public-health code) requires bin rooms, rubbish chutes and a building's outbuildings to be kept clean and the necessary steps taken against insects and rodents. They are often the first hotspots in a building.
Treatment does not replace upkeep: regular washing of bins and the bin room, doors that close, drain traps kept wet, leaks fixed. Our report separates what is down to treatment from what is routine maintenance, so everyone knows their part.
Can you look after several buildings in and around Vincennes?
Yes. Each building has its own plan, schedule and reports, and you keep one point of contact for all your sites in Val-de-Marne.
Do I need a contract?
No. A one-off job on quote is often enough. If the report shows ongoing pressure around the building, we can then suggest periodic follow-up, with no obligation.
Why do cockroaches come back after my flat was treated?
Because the main colony often sits in a shared area (riser, rubbish chute, boiler room) and moves back into treated homes. We locate and treat that source at the same time as the affected flats.
Do you treat rubbish chutes?
Yes. We treat the chute, the hatches on each floor and the collection room, then recommend cleaning and repairs. If the owners are thinking of closing the chute, our report can inform their decision.
