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 larger 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.

With a global distribution as a one of the sort roach species, the mature female German roach can lay 35 to 45 eggs instances or known as ootheca, which also encapsulates multiple eggs. When these eggs hatch in approximately 1 month, the nymphs thrive to survive and develop into adults between 6 months to 6 months. German roaches are fast breeders and they can multiply normally 3 to 4 generations per year. Like most other species of cockroaches, German cockroaches are nocturnal pests. They are most commonly found indoors, it prefers wet, humid conditions and is typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

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 on 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 usually 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.

If the population is large enough, they will spill over to other rooms. These roaches are mostly active at night. If German roaches are seen active during the day, it probably is because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their harborage areas; they spend about 75% of the time in these harborages. First instar nymphs require a crack of about 1/32" whereas, adults need inch width. German cockroach nymphs are smaller compared to most other cockroaches; hence, they have the ability to conceal themselves in many places and stay protected.
