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.
