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 your thumb and it is 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 larger (up to 1.5 inches), has wings, and is reddish-brown with a lighter edge over the head, then it is an American roach.

German cockroaches prefer to live near their food and water source which is generally in the kitchen and bathroom. We place the max 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 perish. After the cockroach egg capsules hatch the babies eat the gel then die. A successful German cockroach infestation can sometimes take up to a month to work since we have to wait for the egg capsules to hatch.

German roaches are mainly seen during the night. If you see these types of cockroaches during the day, there is a substantial infestation present. They also leave excrement droppings that look like black pepper. It’s important to be aware of the location of this excrement to treat in these regions, however, remove it with a vacuum cleaner as soon as possible. The bacteria from these excrement droppings have been known to trigger allergies and asthma. The majority of the roach population is located in the kitchen or bathrooms.

If the population is large enough, they will spill over to other chambers. These roaches are mostly active at night. If German roaches are seen active during the day, it probably is due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a shortage of water and food 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 than most other cockroaches; hence, they have the ability to conceal themselves in many places and stay protected.
