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 houses, restaurants and hotels. These cockroaches are much bigger than Australian and American cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they’re one foul pest that’s a huge nuisance to household and environment.

German cockroaches prefer to live close to their water and food source which is usually in the kitchen and bathroom. We place the maximum force gel in strategic areas around the kitchen and bathroom. The cockroaches consume the gel and die and then their partners in crime cannibalise them and die. When the cockroach egg capsules hatch the infants eat the gel then die. A successful German cockroach infestation may sometimes take up to a month to work since we must await the egg capsules to hatch.

Adults are half an inch long, light to medium brown with two dark identifying strips behind the head. The young are wingless, smaller and much darker in color, with a light stripe on their backs. German cockroaches will eat anything. They stay near food and water source. Ladies replicate one egg capsule every 3-4 weeks. Each capsule contains 25-45 eggs. Infestations are often 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 spread over adjacent rooms. They move around freely at night, however, if you see them throughout the day, it probably is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of food and water supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75 percent of their time in these places breeding.
