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 man’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 distribution, German cockroaches are easily recognisable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to approximately 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, generally 3-4 generations annually. As it is most commonly found inside, it prefers wet, 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 is a substantial infestation present. They also leave excrement droppings that look like black pepper. It’s important to take note of the location of this excrement to treat in these regions, however, remove it with a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The bacteria from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger allergies and asthma. Nearly All the roach population is found in the kitchen or bathrooms.

Out of that capsule can come up to 36-48 eggs. That means just one roach can spawn 384 more roaches. As you can see, you can have quite a pest problem in only a short time with German roaches. That is why it’s important to eliminate roach eggs when you treat for cockroaches. Simply eliminating the live roaches will not resolve the issue.

• 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?

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

The German cockroach can move well within a building. They can also travel from a neighbouring apartment or location to another and can pass through small openings like light change 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.

Roaches enter homes in search of food, water and shelter. Once they have infested an area, they could multiply quickly, posing a danger to your comfort and health. It’s important to get rid of cockroaches before an infestation occurs. Roaches are known to carry bacteria that can result in food poisoning, diarrhea, allergies and skin rashes. In huge numbers, they are also able to produce a foul odour. Before deciding the way to kill roaches in your house, it’s best to develop a program.
