German Cockroaches Control
Dundas Valley

German cockroaches on the loose

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

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 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 annually. As it is most commonly found indoors, it prefers moist, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

In a restaurant, they’ll come on supplies, especially soda syrups, and be put in the commercial kitchen or storage areas. They can also come into commercial kitchen facilities by hitching a ride in the handbags of workers. Inside the home, the feminine lays a light brown egg capsule every 16-24 days — up to 8 egg capsules in her lifetime.

Out of this capsule can come up to 36-48 eggs. That means just one roach can spawn 384 more roaches. As you can see, you can have quite a pest problem in only a short time with German roaches. That is why it’s important to eliminate roach eggs when you treat for cockroaches. Simply eliminating the live roaches won’t resolve the issue.

Your German Cockroach Control Program

Also, when starting your German roach control program, sanitation is one of the first things to consider. German roaches only require a small amount of food to sustain them. You want to:

• 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 must be sealed.
• Keep 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?

Your property could be an ideal breeding ground for cockroaches. There are multiple ways they could gain entrance to buildings: through cracks, crevices, vents, sewers, pipe drains, open windows and doors and in goods brought into assumptions.

Cockroaches like German cockroach can thrive indoors and outside. They can move in and out of the building and can even travel from neighbouring family to another location. That’s why an unsuspecting infestation requires professional help. Pest control experts do a comprehensive site inspection to discover all potential harborages and also as identifying the kind 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 need to be found and treated. It may not be possible to eliminate all of 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.
