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 could be distinguished from other roaches by two black parallel stripes on the anterior, dorsal portion of the thorax. If it isn’t the size of your thumb and it’s reddish brown to black, it’s a female wood roach. If It’s 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.

The German cockroach is a cosmopolitan species, meaning, they are widely distributed to other nations, 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 approximately 1 month and the nymphs flourish to survive and develop into adults between 6 months to 6 months. German roaches can multiply fast, normally 3 to 4 generations per year. German cockroaches are nocturnal pests, meaning they are busy nighttime creepy crawlers. They can thrive both indoors and outside and prefers wet, humid areas such as kitchens and bathrooms in houses and commercial properties.

In a restaurant, they will come on supplies, especially soda syrups, and be placed in the kitchen or storage areas. They can also develop into commercial kitchen facilities by hitching a ride in the handbags of workers. 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 due to overcrowding in their hiding places or a lack of water and food supply. Cracks and crevices are their nesting areas; they spend about 75% of their time in these places breeding.
