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 most of the roaches.

German cockroaches like to live close to their water and food source that is usually in the kitchen and bathroom. We put the max 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 have to wait for the egg capsules to hatch.

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

If the population is large enough, they will spread over adjacent rooms. They move around freely at night, however, if you see them throughout the day, it most likely is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75% of the time in these places breeding.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

The first and easiest step to control the nesting of German cockroaches in your home is to do preventive measures. This includes cleaning your family and surrounding area and make sure that everything is mess-free. Below are simple things you can do to prevent these pests from festering around:

• Remove indoor trash or keep them emptied
• Maintain trash dumpsters clean
• Make sure food isn’t left in the sink strainers and often run the garbage disposal
• Food containers must be sealed.
• Keep dishes clean, no residue of food remaining
• All kitchen appliances (microwaves, toasters, ovens, refrigerators and stoves) should 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
• 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 keeping your doors and windows shut and good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a huge difference.

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

Doing a DIY method cannot simply guarantee complete eradication of cockroaches. If insecticides have been used, there’s a possibility that the German cockroach simply sprinkled to another area. Professional help, especially for bugs that are unknown, is important so as to find and treat these harborages. If infestation is suspected, you can discuss this with our certified technicians for successful cockroach control in your home or business.
