Kinds of cockroach in Jeddah: which one is in your home?
Knowing the kind is half the treatment, because each lives in a different place and is treated differently. The spraying that works on drain cockroaches does not work on kitchen cockroaches, and may spread them.
| Kind | Appearance | Where it lives | Treatment |
|---|---|---|---|
| German | Small, 1 – 1.5 cm, light brown with two dark stripes | Kitchen: behind fridge and oven, inside cabinets and appliances | Gel, bait and a growth regulator |
| American | Large, 3 – 4 cm, reddish brown, sometimes flies | Drains, inspection chambers and bathrooms | Spraying chambers and drains, sealing gaps |
| Oriental | Medium, glossy black | Cool damp places: basements and ground-tank surrounds | Perimeter spray and damp control |
| Brown-banded | Small with two pale bands | Dry rooms: wardrobes and behind pictures | Gel in hiding places |
Why do cockroaches appear in a home?
- Water: a leak under the sink or behind the washing machine. A cockroach lives for weeks without food but only days without water.
- Food: crumbs, grease behind the hob and rubbish left overnight in the kitchen.
- Entry points: gaps around pipes, uncovered drains and AC openings.
- What comes in with you: grocery boxes and second-hand appliances.
- Neighbours: in apartment blocks they move through the pipe shafts.
Signs of cockroaches
Getting rid of cockroaches at home for good: what you can do
- Cut off their water: fix leaks, dry the sink at night and leave no water standing in dishes.
- Cut off their food: sealed containers, no rubbish overnight, and cleaning behind the hob and fridge.
- Seal the gaps: silicone around pipes, mesh covers on drains and a seal under doors.
- Use gel, not spray, in the kitchen: small dots at hinges and behind appliances, away from food and children.
- Get rid of cardboard: cockroaches lay eggs in its corrugations.
- Cover inspection chambers: and check their covers in the yard are tight.
Cockroach insecticide: which is strongest, gel or spray?
There is no “strongest insecticide” that suits every case. The strongest is the one suited to the kind of cockroach and where it lives. What people call the “cockroach syringe” is a bait gel in an applicator: the cockroach eats it, returns to its harbourage and dies, and the rest of the group feed on it in turn.
| Method | Suits | Advantage | Drawback |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gel (the “syringe”) | German cockroaches in the kitchen | Reaches the harbourage, odourless, no need to leave | Takes a week or two |
| Bait stations | A light infestation | Safe and simple | Weaker than gel |
| Liquid spray | American cockroaches, gaps and chambers | Fast effect | Drives German cockroaches into other rooms and spoils the gel |
| Growth regulator | A recurring infestation | Stops the young maturing | Does not kill adults |
| Dust | Dry voids | Long-lasting | Not for places children can reach |
Getting rid of small cockroaches for good
Small cockroaches in the kitchen are not the young of the big ones: they are the German kind, the hardest because it breeds fast inside the home itself. The treatment is gel in dozens of small dots at every hinge and corner and behind every appliance, a follow-up visit after two weeks to renew the gel, and a growth regulator.
Drain and bathroom cockroaches
The large American cockroach lives in the sewer network and climbs up through drains and inspection chambers, especially in summer and after rain. It is treated outside the home before inside: spraying inspection chambers from SAR 92 each, mesh covers on drains and sealing of gaps around waste pipes.
Why do people’s attempts to get rid of cockroaches fail?
- Spray only: it kills what is visible and leaves the harbourage and the eggs.
- Treating the kitchen and leaving the chambers, or the reverse.
- Leaving the water source: a small leak supports a colony.
- A single treatment: egg cases hatch weeks later.
- One flat in an infested building.
