Is there a way my elderly client can recieve help for a roach infestation?

Lindalee, you might want to start your own thread as the people who answer this question here are responding to that question, and might not have information that could help you.

My mother is 92 and living in her own home. I go over and help her but her legs and back are so stiff we cannot get her in the tub for her shower safely. Need a walk in shower is there govt help to finance one of these showers?

Contact the community in which your client lives - either the building and inspection department, or the code enforcement department. There are HUD grants available for emergency repairs, which I think would include a roach infestation.

The grants are subject to income limitations, and from what I understand funds aren't available until the grants are renewed annually, so it may not be an immediate fix.

You might also call the county public health department, anonymously, and ask about help. Roaches are a public health issue, so they might have some insight into sources of help.

Good luck - this is a really tough issue to address, and presumably there are conditions which allowed the roaches to colonize, so those underlying conditions would also come into play.

If she lives in an apartment building, there should be an exterminator who comes in twice a month to deal with this. If not, perhaps others can advise as to what can be done in a private home. If I t is an infestation, then I believe you need professional to come in. If not, there are products out there for this.
