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 medium yellowish-brown. German roaches could be distinguished from other roaches by two black parallel stripes on the anterior, dorsal portion of the thorax. If it isn’t the size of the thumb and it is reddish brown to black, it is a female wood roach. If It’s 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 using a lighter edge over the head, then it is an American roach.

The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely distributed to other countries, especially those with tropical climates. The mature female German roach can lay 35 to 45 Egg cases or called 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 they are busy nighttime creepy crawlers. They can thrive both indoors and outdoors and prefers wet, humid areas such as kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

These creepy crawlers will leave marks that indicate their presence like excrement and egg cases (ootheca). They may also emit foul odors too due to their growing infestation. Their excrement droppings that look like black pepper. Do not just clean up these excrements without wearing protective equipment. The bacteria from these excrement droppings are known to trigger allergies and asthma. It is important to take note of the location of the excrement to treat in these areas, however, remove it with a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The vast majority of the roach population is found 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 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 found 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 because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting places; they spend about 75 percent of the time in these places breeding.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

A cockroach infestation has to be quickly identified and ascertained to ensure that it does not get out of control. Cockroaches are considered pests due to the dangers they pose. Below are basic things you can do to avoid these pests out of festering around:

• Eliminate indoor trash or maintain them emptied
• Maintain trash dumpsters clean
• Make sure food is not left in the sink strainers and frequently 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
• Eliminate empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Your property could be an ideal breeding ground for cockroaches. There are multiple ways they can gain entry to buildings: through cracks, crevices, vents, sewers, pipe drains, open windows and doors and in goods brought into premises.

The German cockroach can move and dart in and outside of the building. They also can travel from a neighbouring apartment or location to another and may pass through small openings like light switch plates. That is why an unsuspecting infestation requires specialist help. Pest control experts do a thorough site inspection to discover all potential harborages and as well as identifying the sort of cockroach species invading the area.

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 found and treated. It may not be possible to eliminate all of the German cockroaches in a building completely if a consistent supply of cockroaches is carried to the premises via packages or food shipments. You can discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your house or business.
