German cockroaches on the loose

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

With a worldwide distribution as a one of the sort roach species, the adult female German roach can lay 35 to 45 eggs cases or called ootheca, which also encapsulates multiple eggs. When these eggs hatch in about 1 month, the nymphs flourish to survive and develop into adults between 6 months to 6 months. German roaches are fast breeders and they can multiply normally 3 to 4 generations per year. Like most other species of cockroaches, German cockroaches are nocturnal pests. They are most commonly found indoors, it prefers wet, humid conditions and is typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with two dark distinctive strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in color, with a light stripe in their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay close to food and water source. Ladies replicate 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’s a heavy population or you have run them into each other with the repellent effect of insecticides.

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 obvious 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 because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting places; they spend about 75 percent of their time in these places breeding.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!

I have been using this business for pest control for number of years after having a number of other pest control companies failing to ensure unwanted inserts and spiders were not around our place. Local Pest Control seem to have the environmental toxic free products and satisfy the pest problem and it seems to last the year. Highly recommend this business would not consider another pest business. Valued customer.

Real Estate Property Manager. Prior to the introduction I had used other Companys who did not offer the same professional service I attained from Local Pest Control. No job was too small or too big and they were always contactable and were able to attend to the job quickly. The quality of their service and the work performed is second to none. I have used the Company for my own family needs as well and I will never again use another Company for my Pest Control needs.
