German cockroaches on the loose

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

Notorious for their world-wide distribution, German cockroaches are easily identifiable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to approximately 12-15mm in length. Females carry 35 – 40 eggs in an ootheca (egg case) until they are ready to hatch. Hatch in 1 month. Nymphs take between 6 weeks to 6 months to develop into adults, normally 3-4 generations per year. As it is most commonly found indoors, it prefers wet, humid conditions and are typically located in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

German roaches are mainly seen during the night. If you see these types of cockroaches during the day, there is a substantial infestation present. They also leave excrement droppings that look like black pepper. It’s important to be aware of the location of this excrement to treat in these regions, however, remove it with a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The bacteria from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger allergies and asthma. 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 observed active during the day, it probably is because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their harborage areas; they spend about 75% of their time in such harborages. First instar nymphs require 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.

Cockroaches like German cockroach can thrive indoors and outside. They can move in and out of the building and can even travel from neighbouring family to another location. That is why an unsuspecting infestation requires professional assistance. Pest control experts do a comprehensive site inspection to find all potential harborages and as well as identifying the kind of cockroach species invading the area.

Doing a DIY method can’t simply guarantee complete eradication of cockroaches. If insecticides have been used, there’s a risk that the German cockroach simply sprinkled to another area.
