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 is not the size of your thumb and it’s reddish brown to black, it is 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 larger (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 like to live near their water and food source which is generally in the kitchen and bathroom. We put 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. When the cockroach egg capsules hatch the infants eat the gel then die. 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 2 dark, distinctive strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in color, with a light stripe in their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay close to 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 other 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 approximately 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.
The first and easiest step to control the nesting of German cockroaches at home is to perform preventive measures. This includes cleaning your household and surrounding region and ensure that everything is mess-free. Below are easy things you can do to avoid these pests from festering around:
Preventive measures like cleaning the family and surrounding areas can help in keeping cockroaches at bay. You can do this by keeping your windows and doors closed and excellent 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 flat or location to another and may pass through small openings like light switch 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 was brought in with certain items.
Doing a DIY method cannot simply guarantee complete eradication of cockroaches. If insecticides have been used, there’s a risk that the German cockroach simply scattered to another area. Professional help, especially for unidentified infestation, is important so as 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.
