German cockroaches on the loose

With a notorious reputation, German cockroaches are a massive nuisance to both families and businesses. Their presence does not only send shivers but deemed to inflict risk on sanitation and health. These cockroaches are much larger than American and Australian cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they are one nasty pest that brings annoying havoc.

Notorious for their global supply, German cockroaches are easily identifiable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to approximately 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, generally 3-4 generations per year. As it is most commonly found inside, it prefers moist, humid conditions and are typically located in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

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

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 probably is because of overcrowding in their hiding places or a shortage of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75 percent of their time in these places breeding.
