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 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 huge nuisance to household and environment.

Notorious for their global distribution, German cockroaches are easily recognisable 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 per year. As it is most commonly found inside, it prefers wet, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

These creepy crawlers will leave marks that indicate their presence such as excrement and egg cases (ootheca). They can also emit foul odors too because of their growing infestation. Their excrement droppings that look like black pepper. DO NOT simply clean up these excrements without wearing protective equipment. The bacteria from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger asthma and allergies. It is 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 majority of the roach population is found in the kitchen or bathrooms.

Out of that capsule can come up to 36-48 eggs. That means just 1 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 problem.
