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 moderate yellowish-brown. German roaches can 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’s 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 with a lighter border over the mind, then it’s an American roach.

German cockroaches prefer to live close to their food and water source that is generally in the kitchen and bathroom. We place the maximum force gel in strategic areas around the kitchen and bathroom. The cockroaches eat the gel and die and then their partners in crime cannibalise them and die. After the cockroach egg capsules hatch the babies eat the gel then perish. A successful German cockroach infestation may sometimes take up to a month to work since we must wait for the egg capsules to hatch.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with two dark, distinctive strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in colour, with a light stripe in their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay near food and water source. Ladies replicate one egg capsule every 3-4 weeks. Each capsule contains 25-45 eggs. Infestations are usually found in kitchens, bathrooms, but can inhabit different areas if there’s a heavy population or you’ve run them into each other with the repellent effect of insecticides.

Notorious for their worldwide distribution, German cockroaches are easily recognisable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to about 12 — 15mm in length. Most commonly found indoors, they prefer wet, humid conditions and are generally found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

A cockroach infestation has to be quickly identified and determined to make sure that it does not get out of control. Cockroaches are considered pests due to the dangers they pose. Below are basic things you can do to avoid these pests from festering around:

  • Remove indoor trash or maintain them emptied
  • Maintain trash dumpsters clean
  • Make sure food isn’t left in the sink strainers and frequently run the garbage disposal
  • Food containers should be sealed.
  • Maintain dishes clean, no residue of food remaining
  • All kitchen appliances (microwaves, toasters, ovens, refrigerators and stoves) must be clean
  • Maintained in a clean 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
  • Eliminate empty soft drink bottles, paper bags and cardboard boxes

How Do You Prevent German Cockroaches?

On average, roaches can vary anywhere from one-half to 3 inches long. For example, the most common roach discovered indoors is the German roach. The German roach is drawn to water. Reducing access to water sources in your house can help decrease a roach infestation.

The German cockroach can proceed and dart in and out of the building. They also can travel from a neighbouring apartment or place to another and can pass through small openings like light switch plates. That’s why an unsuspecting infestation requires specialist help. Pest control experts do a thorough site review to find all potential harborages and also as identifying the sort of cockroach species invading the region.

If insecticides have been used in a building, there’s a possibility that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. These harborages will need to be found 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 into the premises via packages or food shipments. You can discuss this with our licensed technicians for effective cockroach control in your home 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!
