German cockroaches on the loose

One of the most notorious common cockroaches in the household is the German cockroach. They are easily identifiable and mostly found in houses, restaurants and hotels. These cockroaches are much bigger than American and Australian cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they are one foul pest that’s a tremendous nuisance to environment and household.

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 indoors, it prefers moist, humid conditions and are typically located 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 this 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 asthma and allergies. Nearly All the roach population is located in the kitchen or bathrooms.

If the population is large enough, they will spread over adjoining rooms. They move around freely at night, however, if you see 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 areas; they spend about 75 percent of the time in these places breeding.
