COCKROACHES
What type of cockroach are you having trouble with?
Is it the Gisborne, the German or just our Native Black Cockroach?
This is useful as it can determine which of several methods we would advise to treat them.
The main cockroach we tend to come across is the German cockroach which is the one that carries diseases and often causes food poisoning.
This cockroach is 13-16mm long, light brown, with wings (although it doesn't fly) and the female often has an egg capsule (uthecae). It iss usually found in kitchens.
The native cockroach and the Gisborne cockroach are both wingless. They have lines running across their bodies like slaters (or wood lice).
The Gisborne cockroach is about 20-30mm long and often has a yellowish or clear stripe down either side of its body.
The native black cockroach is about 20mm long.
