German cockroaches on the loose

What do German cockroaches look like and where do you see them? Usually found in the kitchen area, this insect is little, 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch in length, and medium yellowish-brown. German roaches can 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 is 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 larger (up to 1.5 inches), has wings, and is reddish-brown using a lighter edge over the mind, then it is an American roach.

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

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 color, with a light stripe on their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay near food and water source. Females reproduce 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’s a heavy population or you have run them into each other with the repellent effect of insecticides.

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 most likely 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 require inch width. German cockroach nymphs are smaller compared to most other cockroaches; thus, they have the ability to conceal themselves in many places and remain protected.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

To begin with, in controlling the German cockroach infestation, consider first to clean your household and surrounding area and ensure 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 certain food isn’t left in the sink strainers and often 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) should be clean
• Maintained in a sterile condition so that it Is 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
• Eliminate empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

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

There are plenty 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 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. Professional help, particularly for bugs that are unknown, 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 successful cockroach control in your home or business.
