FAQ
How can I prevent German cockroaches?
Seal all entry points around your home. Roaches can fit through tiny cracks in your foundation or walls, as well as spaces around doors and windows. Use weather stripping and caulk, and repair any damaged screens.
Inspect items before bringing them inside. Roaches often make their way into homes hidden on deliveries or other items. Take a close look at packages, boxes, furniture, etc. before bringing them into your home.
Address any water problems. Roaches may enter your building in search of water, and German roaches have entered homes through plumbing. Handle any water issues around your home, like issues with faucets, pipes, downspouts, etc.
Clean your home regularly. Keep your home tidy and clutter-free to eliminate hiding spots and help keep these pests out. Take out the trash regularly and sweep up any messes as soon as possible.
What time of year are German cockroaches most common in Fort Lauderdale?
German cockroach activity peaks in Fort Lauderdale during summer months. But due to the area's warm and humid climate, you can find these roaches in your home throughout the year.
How do German cockroaches differ from American cockroaches?
Color: German cockroaches are tan to brown and have 2 dark stripes on their back. On the other hand, American cockroaches are reddish brown with a tan-yellowish ring between their head and body.
Size: German cockroaches are less than half the size of American cockroaches.
Habitat: German cockroaches like warm indoor spaces such as in cabinets, behind appliances, and in drawers. American cockroaches prefer the outdoors, but when they make their way inside, they gravitate towards dark and damp spots such as basements and attics.
Offspring: In a lifetime, a female German cockroach will lay about 400 eggs, while an American cockroach will have just over 200 offspring in their lifetime.
Do I need to prepare my home for German cockroach control services?
No, we do not require any sort of preparation for roach control services.
Are German cockroaches dangerous?
Roaches, in general, are filthy creatures that have a habit of consuming rotting bacteria-ridden organic matter. These nasty pests spread disease-causing organisms around homes and businesses over countertops, kitchen tables, and on left out and stored foods.
Here are just a few diseases you might contract from these dangerous pests.
Dysentery
Typhoid Fever
Cholera
Salmonellosis
Gastroenteritis
Leprosy
Plague
If you have asthma or any respiratory problem, cockroaches might make you sick in a different way. Indirectly, through their shed skins and dirt-like fecal matter, roaches release particulates into the air that often trigger breathing problems. This problem compounds itself and becomes worse the larger an infestation becomes.
How do I get rid of German cockroaches in my home?
If you know you have German cockroaches, a good starting point is to deep clean your home, specifically addressing grease, food, and water. Try to vacuum up as many roaches as you come across along the way.
It is also important to seal any cracks or holes around your home.
German cockroaches do not respond to granular bait, so we recommend gel bait, especially Vendetta Plus. Apply pea-sized droplets in the cracks that these roaches hide and breed in. Using an Insect Growth Regulator is also extremely helpful, as it can help to break their life cycle and cut down their reproduction.
Since different species respond to certain treatments better than others, it is important to call a professional to identify the type of roach before spending your money on a solution that may or may not work.
