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.

Notorious for their global distribution, German cockroaches are easily identifiable 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 annually. As it is most commonly found indoors, it prefers wet, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with 2 dark distinctive stripes behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in color, with a light stripe in their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay near food and water source. Ladies replicate one egg capsule every 3-4 weeks. Each capsule contains 25-45 eggs. Infestations are usually found in kitchens, bathrooms, but can inhabit different 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 spread over adjoining rooms. They move around freely at night, however, if you see them 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 nesting areas; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.
