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 portion 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 border 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 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 located in kitchens and bathrooms in homes and commercial properties.

We can easily spot German cockroach infestation because they leave evidence, these are droppings, egg case (ootheca) and extremely foul odor. Their excrement droppings that look like black pepper and are largely concentrated in one area. If you see some, DO NOT simply clean up these increments without wearing protective gears. The bacteria from such excrement droppings have been known to trigger asthma and allergies. The best way to remove these is using vacuums.

You may also found their egg cases which look like coffee beans, dark brown in colour. Accompanied by egg cases is their extremely nausea-triggering odor. This can be obvious when an infestation is big enough and spread over adjacent rooms. The majority of the roach population is located in the kitchen or bathrooms. Cockroaches are active at night and they have rarely seen throughout the day. If you spot them during the day, it most likely is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75 percent of their 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 closed and very good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a huge difference.

The German cockroach can move well within a building. They can also 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 potential harborages and a determination if it had been brought in with certain items.

If insecticides have been used in a building, there’s a possibility that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. These harborages need to be located 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 packages or food shipments. You can discuss this with our certified technicians for effective cockroach control in your house or business.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. Local Pest Control is a reliable and effective company who I won’t hesitate to call again! Highly recommend.
