German cockroaches on the loose

The German cockroach Is among 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 most of the roaches.

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 take 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, generally 3-4 generations annually. As it is most commonly found inside, it prefers moist, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with 2 dark, identifying strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in colour, 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.

Out of this capsule can come up to 36-48 eggs. That means just 1 roach can spawn 384 more roaches. As you can see, you can have quite a pest problem in just a short time with German roaches. That’s why it’s important to remove roach eggs once you treat for cockroaches. Simply eliminating the live roaches won’t fix the issue.

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 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 and dart in and out of the building. They also can travel from a neighbouring apartment or location to another and may pass through small openings such as light switch plates. That’s why an unsuspecting infestation requires professional help. Pest control experts do a thorough site review to find all potential harborages and as well as identifying the kind of cockroach species invading the region.

Roaches enter homes in search of food, water and shelter. Once they have infested an area, they can multiply quickly, posing a threat to your relaxation and health. It’s important to get rid of cockroaches before an infestation occurs. Roaches are known to carry bacteria that can result in food poisoning, diarrhea, allergies and skin rashes. In large numbers, they can also generate a foul odour. Before deciding how to kill roaches in your home, it is best to develop a plan. The most effective roach control typically requires more than one type of treatment method.
