German cockroaches on the loose

One of the most notorious common cockroaches in the family is the German cockroach. They are easily identifiable and mostly found in homes, restaurants and hotels. These cockroaches are much larger than American and Australian cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they’re one foul pest that is a huge nuisance to household and environment.

German cockroaches prefer to live close to their water and food source which is usually in the kitchen and bathroom. We place the maximum force gel in strategic areas around the kitchen and bathroom. The cockroaches eat the gel and die and then their partners in crime cannibalise them and die. When the cockroach egg capsules hatch the babies eat the gel then perish. A successful German cockroach infestation may occasionally take up to a month to work because we must await the egg capsules to hatch.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with two dark identifying strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in color, with a light stripe on their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay close to food and water source. Females reproduce one egg capsule every 3-4 weeks. Each capsule contains 25-45 eggs. Infestations are usually found in kitchens, bathrooms, but can inhabit other areas if there’s a heavy population or you’ve run them into each other with the repellent effect of insecticides.

If the population is large enough, they will spill over to other rooms. These roaches are mostly active at night. If German roaches are observed active during the day, it most likely is because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a shortage of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their harborage areas; they spend about 75% of their time in these 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; hence, they are able to conceal themselves in many places and remain protected.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

Also, when beginning your German roach control program, sanitation is one of the first things to take into account. German roaches only need a little bit of food to sustain them. You want to:

• Eliminate indoor trash or keep them emptied
• Keep trash dumpsters clean
• Make certain food is not left in the sink strainers and often run the garbage disposal
• Food containers should be sealed.
• Maintain dishes clean, no residue of food remaining
• All kitchen appliances (microwaves, toasters, ovens, refrigerators and stoves) must be clean
• Maintained in a sterile condition so that it’s food free and grease free
• All pet food has to be picked up
• No food left out in the open
• Sweeping or vacuuming of any food particles or crumbs
• Eliminate empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

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

There are plenty of other prevention methods as well, such as daily cleaning and proper food storage, to stop an infestation. But how can you get rid of cockroaches once they have already entered your home?

German cockroaches are amazing scavengers. In an urban environment, roaches rely heavily on the food people leave behind. Like us, their diet mainly consists of sugar, protein, and carbohydrates. The best way to prevent cockroaches is to eliminate any potential food sources lying around your house or business. But if an infestation is supposed, you can contact us to discuss your requirements for successful cockroach prevention or control in your home or business.

Frequently Asked Questions

My pets in the household will be affected by the treatments you apply?

Your pet’s safety is extremely important to us. We can assure you that the active constituent that they might come into contact with, whether it’s still damp or through inhalation or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Will the spray cause problems to humans?

The spray we employ is typically utilized in public spaces such as schools and hospitals and causes no ill effects on humans.

What do I do if I accidently touch any of the areas that have been spray?

This will only be an issue if the sprayed areas remain wet. If this occurs, clean with soap and plenty of water as soon as you are able to. After a relatively short period of time, the carrier tap water has gone out of the water and won’t cause any harm to you should you come into contact with the area.
