What do German cockroaches look like and where do you see them? Usually found in the kitchen area, this pest is small, 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 portion of the thorax. If it isn’t the size of the thumb and it’s reddish brown to black, it is 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 border over the head, then it’s an American roach.
German cockroaches prefer to live close to their food and water source which is generally in the kitchen and bathroom. We put the maximum force gel in strategic areas around the kitchen and bathroom. The cockroaches consume the gel and die and then their partners in crime cannibalise them and die. After the cockroach egg capsules hatch the infants eat the gel then die. A successful German cockroach infestation may occasionally take up to a month to work because we must await the egg capsules to hatch.
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 asthma and allergies. 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.
If the population is large enough, they will spread over adjacent rooms. They move around freely at night, however, if you see them during the day, it probably is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.
If you notice any kind of cockroach in your property, contact a pest control professional who knows how to get rid of cockroaches. However, you can also do simple things to be able to control German cockroach infestation. Below are basic things you can do to prevent these pests from festering around:
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.
Preventing cockroaches can be successfully carried out with a few basic steps. 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.
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 located 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 into the premises via packages or food shipments. You can discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your home or business.
