German cockroaches on the loose

What do German cockroaches look like and where do you see them? Usually found in the kitchen area, this pest is small, 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch in length, and medium yellowish-brown. German roaches could be distinguished from other roaches by two black parallel stripes on the anterior, dorsal part of the thorax. If it isn’t the size of your thumb and it is reddish brown to black, it’s a female wood roach. If it is dark mahogany and the size of your thumb, then it is a smoky brown roach. If it is bigger (up to 1.5 inches), has wings, and is reddish-brown using a lighter edge over the head, then it’s an American roach.

Notorious for their world-wide distribution, German cockroaches are easily identifiable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to about 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 inside, it prefers wet, humid conditions and are typically found in 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 take note of the location of the excrement to treat in these areas, however, remove it using a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The germs from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger allergies and asthma. Nearly All the roach population is found in the kitchen or bathrooms.

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 because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a shortage of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75 percent of their time in these places breeding.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

To start with, in controlling the German cockroach infestation, consider first to wash your household and surrounding area and be sure that everything is mess-free. Below are easy things you can do to prevent these pests from festering around:

  • Remove indoor trash or maintain them emptied
  • Keep trash dumpsters clean
  • Make sure food isn’t left in the sink strainers and frequently run the garbage disposal
  • Food containers should be sealed.
  • Keep dishes clean, no residue of food remaining
  • All kitchen appliances (microwaves, toasters, ovens, refrigerators and stoves) must be clean
  • Maintained in a sterile 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?

Generally, roaches can vary anywhere from one-half to 3 inches long. For instance, the most common roach discovered indoors is the German roach. The German roach is attracted to water. Reducing access to water sources in your house can help reduce a roach infestation.

There are lots of other prevention methods also, such as daily cleaning and proper food storage, to prevent an infestation. But how can you get rid of cockroaches once they have already entered your home?

Doing a DIY method cannot simply guarantee complete eradication of cockroaches. If insecticides have been used, there is a possibility that the German cockroach simply sprinkled to another area. Professional assistance, especially for unidentified infestation, is important in order to find and treat these harborages. If infestation is suspected, it is possible to discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your home or business.

Ben is an absolute gentleman. Extremely polite and courteous and was very thorough in his work. He even took the time to explain different aspects of his job and the various insects and how he gets rid of them. Absolute champion. Hoping this will be the start of a long relationship with Andrew and his Local Pest Control team. Cheers.

Extremely happy with the services provided, we had a very knowledgeable technician Sean came to attend to the possum issue in our townhouse, Sean found the openings where the possums came in on the roof right away and patched them up. When the previous pest control company failed to do. But being a two level building with a separated garage roof, it was very difficult to trap the possums still inside, but Andrew the boss and Sean kept trying and finally got the problem all solved. Friendly to talk to and easy to work with so Highly recommended.
