One of the most notorious common cockroaches in the family is the German cockroach. They are easily identifiable and mostly found in houses, restaurants and hotels. These cockroaches are much larger than Australian and American cockroaches. The adult can grow about 12 to 15 mm and they are one foul pest that’s a tremendous nuisance to environment and household.
The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely distributed to other countries, especially those with tropical climates. The adult female German roach can lay 35 to 45 Egg cases or called ootheca, which also encapsulates multiple eggs. These eggs hatch in about 1 month and the nymphs flourish to survive and develop into adults between 6 weeks to 6 months. German roaches can multiply fast, normally 3 to 4 generations per year. German cockroaches are nocturnal pests, meaning they are active nighttime creepy crawlers. They can thrive both indoors and outdoors and prefers wet, humid areas such as kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.
At a restaurant, they will come on supplies, especially soda syrups, and be placed 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 feminine lays a light brown egg capsule every 16-24 days — up to 8 egg capsules in her lifetime.
Notorious for their worldwide distribution, German cockroaches are easily recognisable by 2 dark longitudinal stripes on their pronotum. Adults grow to about 12 — 15mm in length. Most commonly found inside, they prefer wet, humid conditions and are typically found in kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.
To begin with, in controlling the German cockroach infestation, consider first to clean your household and surrounding area and ensure that everything is mess-free. Below are easy things you can do to prevent these pests from festering around:
A few basic preventive measures are the first step in preventing roaches invading your area. These things include by keeping your doors and windows closed and very good standards of cleaning and tidying that can make a huge difference.
There are lots of other prevention methods also, such as daily cleaning and proper food storage, to prevent an infestation. But how can you get rid of cockroaches once they have already entered your home?
German cockroaches are amazing scavengers. In an urban environment, roaches rely heavily on the food people leave behind. Like us, their diet mainly consists of protein, sugar, and carbohydrates. The best way to prevent cockroaches is to remove any potential food sources lying around your home or business. However, if an infestation is suspected, it is possible to contact us to discuss your requirements for successful cockroach control or prevention in your house or business.

We will need access to the room edges as it will be necessary that we spray the skirtings. We would require that you remove clothing articles, newspapers, children’s toys etc from the ground surfaces. Items of food will also need to be cleared from table tops and benches.
Can the spray cause any problems to humans?
The spray we use is often used in public places such as hospitals and schools and causes no ill effects to humans.
