German cockroaches on the loose

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

Notorious for their world-wide supply, German cockroaches are easily identifiable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to approximately 12-15mm in length. Females take 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 moist, humid conditions and are typically located in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

At a restaurant, they will come on supplies, especially soda syrups, and be placed in the commercial kitchen or storage areas. They can also come into commercial kitchen facilities by hitching a ride in the handbags of workers. Inside the home, the female lays a light brown egg capsule every 16-24 days — up to 8 egg capsules in her lifetime.

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 require 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?

A few basic preventive measures are the first step in preventing roaches invading your area. These things include by maintaining your doors and windows shut and very good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a massive difference.

Cockroaches like German cockroach can thrive indoors and outdoors. They can move in and out of the construction and can even travel from neighbouring household to another location. That’s why an unsuspecting infestation requires professional assistance. Pest control experts do a comprehensive site inspection to find all potential harborages and also as identifying the sort of cockroach species invading the region.

Doing a DIY method cannot simply guarantee complete eradication of cockroaches. If insecticides have been used, there is a risk that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. Professional help, especially for unidentified infestation, is important in order 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.
