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 flexible feeding habits of most of the roaches.

The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely spread to other nations, especially those with tropical climates. The adult female German roach can lay 35 to 45 Egg cases or known as ootheca, which also encapsulates multiple eggs. These eggs hatch in approximately 1 month and the nymphs thrive to survive and develop into adults between 6 months to 6 months. German roaches can multiply fast, normally 3 to 4 generations per year. German cockroaches are nocturnal pests, meaning to say they are active nighttime creepy crawlers. They can thrive both indoors and outside and prefers wet, humid areas such as kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with two dark identifying stripes 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 often found in kitchens, bathrooms, but can inhabit different areas if there is a heavy population or you’ve run them into each other with the repellent effect of insecticides.

You may also found their egg cases that look like coffee beans, dark brown in colour. Accompanied by egg cases is their extremely nausea-triggering odor. This can be evident when an infestation is big enough and spread over adjacent rooms. The majority of the roach population is located in the kitchen or bathrooms. Cockroaches are active at night and they’ve rarely seen throughout the day. If you spot them during the day, it most likely is because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting places; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Preventive measures like cleaning the family and surrounding areas can help keep cockroaches at bay. You can do this by keeping your doors and windows shut and good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a huge difference.

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

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