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 the majority of the roaches.

Notorious for their world-wide supply, German cockroaches are easily identifiable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to about 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 inside, it prefers moist, humid conditions and are typically located in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

German roaches are mainly seen during the night. If you see these types of cockroaches throughout the day, there’s a substantial infestation present. They also leave excrement droppings that look like black pepper. It is important to be aware of the location of the excrement to treat in these areas, however, remove it with a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The germs from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger asthma and allergies. The majority of the roach population is located in the kitchen or bathrooms.

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 found in the kitchen or bathrooms. Cockroaches are active at night and they’ve 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 the time in these places breeding.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

The first and easiest step to control the nesting of German cockroaches at home is to do preventive measures. This includes cleaning your household and surrounding region and ensure that everything is mess-free. Below are easy things you can do to prevent these pests from festering around:

• Eliminate indoor trash or keep them emptied
• Maintain trash dumpsters clean
• Make sure food is not left in the sink strainers and often run the garbage disposal
• Food containers must 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 clean condition so that it’s food free and grease free
• All pet food needs to be picked up
• No food left out in the open
• Sweeping or vacuuming of any food particles or crumbs
• Get rid of empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Preventive measures like cleaning the family and surrounding areas can help in keeping cockroaches at bay. You can do this by keeping your windows and doors shut and good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a massive 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 was brought in with certain items.

Doing a DIY method can’t 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, particularly for unidentified infestation, is important in order to locate and treat these harborages. If infestation is suspected, it is possible to discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your home or business.
