German cockroaches on the loose

One of the most notorious common cockroaches in the household is the German cockroach. They are easily identifiable and mostly found in homes, restaurants and hotels. These cockroaches are much larger than Australian and American cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they are one foul pest that’s a huge nuisance to environment and household.

The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely distributed to other nations, especially those with tropical climates. The adult 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 thrive 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 busy nighttime creepy crawlers. They can thrive both indoors and outside and prefers wet, humid areas such as 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 is a substantial infestation present. They also leave excrement droppings that look like black pepper. It is important to take note of the location of this excrement to treat in these areas, however, remove it with a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The bacteria from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger asthma and allergies. Nearly All the roach population is located in the kitchen or bathrooms.

If the population is large enough, they will spill over to other rooms. These roaches are mostly active at night. If German roaches are seen active 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 harborage areas; they spend about 75% of the time in such harborages. First instar nymphs need a crack of about 1/32" whereas, adults need inch width. German cockroach nymphs are smaller compared to most other cockroaches; hence, they are able to conceal themselves in many places and stay protected.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

To start with, in controlling the German cockroach infestation, consider first to wash your household and surrounding area and ensure that everything is mess-free. Below are simple things you can do to prevent these pests from festering around:

• Eliminate indoor trash or maintain them emptied
• Keep trash dumpsters clean
• Make certain food isn’t 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 has to be picked up
• No food left out in the open
• Sweeping or vacuuming of any food particles or crumbs
• Get rid of empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

A few basic preventive measures are the first step in preventing roaches invading your area. These things include by maintaining your doors and windows closed and good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a huge difference.

The German cockroach can move well within a building. They also can 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 possible harborages and a determination if it was brought in with certain items.

If insecticides have been used in a building, there’s 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 remove all of the German cockroaches in a building completely if a consistent source of cockroaches is carried to the premises via bundles or food shipments. You can discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your home or business.
