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 is not the size of the thumb and it’s reddish brown to black, it’s a female wood roach. If it is 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 using a lighter edge over the mind, then it’s an American roach.

German cockroaches prefer to live close to their food and water source which are 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. When the cockroach egg capsules hatch the babies eat the gel then die. A successful German cockroach infestation can occasionally take up to a month to work because we must await the egg capsules to hatch.

We can easily spot German cockroach infestation because they leave evidence, these are droppings, egg case (ootheca) and extremely foul odor. Their excrement droppings that seem like black pepper and are largely concentrated in one area. If you spot some, DO NOT simply clean up these increments without wearing protective equipment. The bacteria from such excrement droppings have been known to trigger asthma and allergies. The best way to eliminate these is using vacuums.

If the population is large enough, they will spread over adjoining rooms. They move around freely at night, however, if you see them throughout the day, it most likely is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.
