German cockroaches on the loose

With a notorious reputation, German cockroaches are a huge nuisance to both families and businesses. Their presence does not only send shivers but deemed to impose danger on sanitation and health. These cockroaches are much larger than Australian and american cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they’re one nasty pest that brings frustrating chaos.

The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely spread to other countries, especially those with tropical climates. The adult female German roach can lay 35 to 45 Egg cases or known as ootheca, which also encapsulates multiple eggs. These eggs hatch in approximately 1 month and the nymphs flourish to survive and develop into adults between 6 weeks to 6 months. German roaches can multiply fast, generally 3 to 4 generations per year. German cockroaches are nocturnal pests, meaning to say they are active nighttime creepy crawlers. They can thrive both indoors and outside and prefers wet, humid areas such as kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with 2 dark distinctive strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in colour, with a light stripe on their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay close to food and water source. Females reproduce one egg capsule every 3-4 weeks. Each capsule contains 25-45 eggs. Infestations are often found in kitchens, bathrooms, but can inhabit different areas if there is 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 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 due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a shortage of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their harborage areas; they spend about 75% of the time in these harborages. First instar nymphs require a crack of about 1/32" whereas, adults require inch width. German cockroach nymphs are smaller than most other cockroaches; hence, they are able to conceal themselves in many places and remain protected.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

Also, when starting your German roach management program, sanitation is one of the first things to take into account. German roaches only require a small amount of food to sustain them. You want to:

• Remove indoor trash or maintain them emptied
• Keep trash dumpsters clean
• Make certain food is not left in the sink strainers and frequently run the garbage disposal
• Food containers should be sealed.
• Keep dishes clean, no residue of food remaining
• All kitchen appliances (microwaves, toasters, ovens, refrigerators and stoves) must be clean
• Maintained in a sterile condition so that it’s food free and grease free
• All pet food has to be picked up
• No food left out in the open
• Sweeping or vacuuming of any food particles or crumbs
• Eliminate empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

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

The German cockroach can move well within a building. They can also travel from a neighbouring flat 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 had been brought in with certain items.

German cockroaches are amazing scavengers. In an urban environment, roaches rely heavily on the food people leave behind. Like us, their diet mainly consists of protein, sugar, and carbohydrates. The best way to prevent cockroaches is to remove any potential food resources lying around your house or business. But if an infestation is supposed, you can contact us to discuss your requirements for effective cockroach control or prevention in your house or business.
