German cockroaches on the loose

With a notorious reputation, German cockroaches are a massive nuisance to both families and businesses. Their existence does not only send shivers but deemed to impose risk on sanitation and health. These cockroaches are much larger than Australian and american cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they are one nasty pest that brings annoying havoc.

The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely distributed to other countries, 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 about 1 month and the nymphs thrive to survive and develop into adults between 6 months 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 active 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 during the day, there’s a substantial infestation present. They also leave excrement droppings that look like black pepper. It’s important to be aware of the location of the 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 found in the kitchen or bathrooms.

Out of this capsule can come up to 36-48 eggs. That means just one roach can spawn 384 more roaches. As you can see, you can have quite a pest problem in just a brief time with German roaches. That’s why it’s important to remove roach eggs when you treat for cockroaches. Simply eliminating the live roaches won’t fix the issue.

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

Preventing cockroaches can be successfully carried out with a few basic measures. When it comes to prevention and control of pests, simple things like keeping doors and windows shut and very 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 may pass through small openings like light switch plates. Many times they are brought in with grocery items, grocery bags, cartons, handbags, and luggage. A professional inspection is important to find all potential 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 need to be found and treated. It may not be possible to eliminate all the German cockroaches in a building completely if a consistent supply of cockroaches is carried to the premises via bundles or food shipments. You can discuss this with our licensed technicians for effective cockroach control in your home or business.
