German cockroaches on the loose

The German cockroach Is one of the most common roaches found in apartment houses, restaurants and hotels. German cockroach (eggs included) are "brought in" usually on individual’s belongings, luggage, boxes or packages. They produce the most eggs, have the shortest development cycle, the best survival rate of the young, and the most adaptive feeding habits of most of the roaches.

Notorious for their global supply, German cockroaches are easily recognisable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to about 12-15mm in length. Females carry 35 – 40 eggs in an ootheca (egg case) until they are ready to hatch. Hatch in 1 month. Nymphs take between 6 weeks to 6 months to develop into adults, generally 3-4 generations per year. As it is most commonly found inside, it prefers wet, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

We can easily spot German cockroach infestation since they leave evidence, these are droppings, egg case (ootheca) and extremely foul odor. Their excrement droppings that seem like black pepper and are mostly concentrated in one area. If you spot some, DO NOT simply clean up these increments without wearing protective gears. The bacteria from such excrement droppings are known to trigger asthma and allergies. The best way to eliminate these is by using vacuums.

If the population is large enough, they will spill over to other chambers. These roaches are mostly active at night. If German roaches are observed active during the day, it most likely is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a shortage of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their harborage areas; they spend about 75% of their time in such harborages. First instar nymphs need a crack of about 1/32" whereas, adults need inch width. German cockroach nymphs are smaller than most other cockroaches; thus, they are able to conceal themselves in many places and stay protected.

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Your property could be an ideal breeding ground for cockroaches. There are multiple ways they can gain entrance to structures: through cracks, crevices, vents, sewers, pipe drains, open windows and doors and in goods brought into premises.

The German cockroach can move well within a building. They can also travel from a neighbouring flat or location to another and may pass through small openings like light change plates. Many times they are brought in with grocery items, grocery bags, cartons, handbags, and luggage. A professional inspection is important to find all possible harborages and a determination if it was brought in with certain items.

Doing a DIY method cannot simply guarantee complete eradication of cockroaches. If insecticides have been used, there is a possibility that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. Professional assistance, especially for bugs that are unknown, is important so as to locate and treat these harborages. If infestation is suspected, you can discuss this with our certified technicians for successful cockroach control in your home or business.
