German cockroaches on the loose

The German cockroach Is one of 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 flexible feeding habits of the majority of the roaches.

Notorious for their world-wide supply, German cockroaches are easily identifiable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to about 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, normally 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.

We can easily spot German cockroach infestation since 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 spot some, DO NOT simply clean up these increments without wearing protective equipment. 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 that look like coffee beans, dark brown in colour. Accompanied by egg cases is their exceptionally nausea-triggering odor. This can be evident 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’ve rarely seen throughout the day. If you spot them during the day, it probably is because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting places; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.

On average, roaches can vary 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 home can help reduce a roach infestation.

The German cockroach can move well within a building. They also can travel from a neighbouring flat or location to another and can 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 possible harborages and a determination if it was brought in with certain items.

Roaches enter houses in search of food, water and shelter. Once they have infested an area, they could multiply quickly, posing a danger to your comfort and health.

In huge numbers, they can also produce a foul odour. Before deciding how to kill roaches in your house, it’s best to develop a plan.
