Cockroaches - Most Common
What is the most common cockroach? The German cockroach accounts for
about 98% of the infestations in the United States. It is important to
understand all you can about its habits, life functions and
identification tobe successful at control. The German cockroach is a
survivor. Its reproduction rate is a huge factor. One pair of German
cockroaches can produce tens of thousands of offspring in just one
year. You should expect to find both adults and nymphs or you probably
haven't found the infestation. Another survival factor is its eating
habits. When food is not readily available, the German cockroach will
readily eat paper, glue, toothpaste or even soap. It can survive
without water for long periods of time. Inspect other areas as well as
the kitchen and bath. Another survival factor is its habit of hiding in
cracks up to 75% of the time. If you see several cockroaches out and
about, it may indicate a large infestation.
