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 adaptive feeding habits of the majority of the roaches.

The German roach is easily transported. It comes from the grocery store, suppliers (commercial) or your friends and neighbours. When you buy groceries, they could catch a ride in one of those bags and can be accidentally introduced to your pantry or your kitchen cabinets

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with two dark, identifying stripes behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in colour, with a light stripe in their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay close to 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 other areas if there is a heavy population or you’ve 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 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 nesting areas; they spend about 75% of the time in these places breeding.

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

A couple of basic preventive measures are the first step in preventing roaches invading your area. These things include by maintaining your doors and windows shut and very good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a massive 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 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 had been brought in with certain items.
