German cockroaches on the loose

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

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, normally 3-4 generations per year. As it is most commonly found indoors, it prefers wet, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses 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 regions, 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. Nearly All the roach population is found in the kitchen or bathrooms.

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 located 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 shortage of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting places; they spend about 75% of the time in these places breeding.

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

On average, roaches can range anywhere from one-half to 3 inches long. For example, the most common roach found inside is the German roach. The German roach is drawn to water. Reducing access to water resources in your home can help reduce a roach infestation.

There are lots 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 home?

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 of the German cockroaches in a building completely if a consistent supply of cockroaches is carried into the premises via packages or food shipments. You can discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your house or business.
