German cockroaches on the loose

What do German cockroaches look like and where do you see them? Usually found in the kitchen area, this insect is little, 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch in length, and medium yellowish-brown. German roaches could be distinguished from other roaches by two black parallel stripes on the anterior, dorsal portion of the thorax. If it is not the size of your thumb and it is reddish brown to black, it is a female wood roach. If It’s dark mahogany and the size of your thumb, then it is a smoky brown roach. If it is larger (up to 1.5 inches), has wings, and is reddish-brown using a lighter border over the head, then it’s an American roach.

German cockroaches prefer to live near their food and water source that are usually in the kitchen and bathroom. We place the max force gel in strategic areas around the kitchen and bathroom. The cockroaches consume the gel and die and then their partners in crime cannibalise them and perish. After the cockroach egg capsules hatch the babies eat the gel then die. A successful German cockroach infestation may sometimes take up to a month to work because we have to await the egg capsules to hatch.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with 2 dark, identifying 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. 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 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 which look like coffee beans, dark brown in colour. Accompanied by egg cases is their exceptionally nausea-triggering odor. This can be evident when an infestation is large enough and spread over adjacent rooms. The majority of the roach population is found in the kitchen or bathrooms. Cockroaches are active at night and they have rarely seen during the day. If you spot them during the day, it most likely is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Preventing cockroaches can be successfully completed with a few basic measures. When it comes to prevention and management of pests, simple things such as keeping doors and windows shut and good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a huge difference.

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

If insecticides have been used in a building, there is a risk that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. These harborages will need to be located and treated. It may not be possible to remove all the German cockroaches in a building completely if a consistent supply of cockroaches is carried into the premises via bundles or food shipments. You can discuss this with our licensed technicians for effective cockroach control in your home or business.
