Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a species, the German cockroach is one of the most widespread indoor urban pests worldwide. While numerous products have been developed to control their spread, German cockroaches continue to contaminate food, transmit disease and cause significant, long-term economic expense to homes, restaurants, hospitals and more. Biology and Management of the German Cockroach summarises the many advances in management technology, products, delivery systems, and basic and applied research over the past 25 years. Leading researchers explain why the German cockroach is a medically important pest and how its microbiome can provide new insights on cockroach physiology and potential novel targets for control. The authors also address the research from a practical standpoint, detailing why baits have replaced sprays as the primary method of control and how population genetic studies allow for better understanding of cockroach dispersal and population structure. Leading experts on integrated pest management (IPM) explore how studies on German cockroach control programs demonstrate the value and feasibility of IPM in urban environments. This book provides the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the German cockroach and will be a valuable reference for researchers, graduate students, pest management professionals, health workers and government agencies dealing with urban pests and pesticides.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.) (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae), produces several allergens, including B. germanica allergen 1 (Bla g 1). Although the clinical significance and abatement of German cockroach allergens continues to be extensively studied, little is known about their basic biology. Using molecular and physiological approaches, my research elucidated where Bla g 1 is produced, its tissue distribution, developmental expression patterns, and its physiological regulation in the German cockroach. Bla g 1 is found predominantly in, and produced exclusively by, the midgut. Although it is produced by all stages and both sexes, adult females produce and excrete in their feces significantly more Bla g 1 than adult males and nymphs. Quantitative analyses of Bla g 1 mRNA expression in the female gut, and Bla g 1 content of the female and her feces showed a cyclic pattern in relation to the gonadotrophic cycle; Bla g 1 increased during the first 5 d after adult eclosion, when food intake increases, decreased before oviposition, as food consumption declines, and remained low while the female carried an egg case. After hatch, when the female resumed feeding, feces and Bla g 1 production increased. Forced starvation depressed both Bla g 1 mRNA expression and protein levels in adult females; Bla g 1 production increased and the gonadotrophic cycle resumed when food was returned. Bla g 1 mRNA expression also increased significantly in response to feeding compared to starved females. These data show that Bla g 1 is produced in relation to food intake and may be involved in digestion. The best approach to allergen mitigation is to remove the source of the allergen, or cockroach control. Pest control in the confined swine production industry relies primarily on broad-spectrum residual organic sprays. However, recent regulatory restrictions that limit the use of organophosphate insecticides and a rising frequency of resistance to pyrethroid insecticides have led.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homeostatic processes within insects are affected by various extrinsic factors and are maintained through compensatory and/or inductive responses. A study was conducted to evaluate the interrelationship of two extrinsic factors (nutrition and pesticide exposure), on growth, development, feeding behavior and insecticide susceptibility in German cockroaches, Blattella qermanica (L.). Amount of dietary protein had no effect on susceptibility of male German cockroaches to propoxur and chlorpyrifos. The source of protein produced significant changes in insecticide susceptibility. Laboratory rodent chow increased total body lipids, carbohydrates and uric acid which may have resulted in increased tolerance to these insecticides. Three days of food and/or water deprivation had little effect on chlorpyrifos susceptibility, but susceptibility to propoxur increased under these conditions. Following topical propoxur application, males lost 10% of their body weight in the form of water, but this loss did not result in significant changes in water or food consumption subsequent to treatment. Hydroprene produced morphogenetic changes and increased total body mass in emergent adults. Morphogenetic changes in males occurred in the left and right phallomeres, subgenital plate and styli, precluding copulation and was related to dose and age of nymphal exposure. Total body mass of exposed males increased as much as 53% and of females as much as 47%; this change in body mass was accompanied by changes in water balance, total body carbohydrates, lipids and urates. Orlando normal males exposed to a low dose of hydroprene exhibited a slight increase in susceptibility to propoxur, while susceptibility to chlorpyrifos decreased. The multiresistant HRDC strain exhibited similar responses, except that a high hydroprene dose resulted in their increased tolerance to chlorpyrifos. The compounds A9248 and allopurinol were evaluated as growth inhibitors. The antimicrobial agent, A9248, when formulated as a 4% bait, produced 100% mortality in nonchoice tests; in choice tests, however, 32% survived, and reproduction occurred. Allopurinol 2% bait inhibited the accumulation of uric acid in nymphs, reduced percent survival to between 2 and 7%, and postemergent adult survivors failed to reproduce. Adults fed the bait produced significantly fewer nymphs per female.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In two-choice, still-air arena olfactometer experiments, Porapak-Q headspace volatile extract of peanut butter and solvent extract of beer were shown to attract males of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.) (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae). Coupled gas chromatographic-electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) and GC-mass spectrometric (MS) analyses of these attractive extracts, or fractions thereof, and of synthetic standards, revealed many candidate semiochemicals. Elaborate olfactometer experiments determined that 1-hexanol from peanut butter, and ethanol and 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4(H)-pyran-4-one (DDMP) from beer, are the key semiochemicals of these food sources. 1-Hexanol is a well known headspace volatile of decomposing lipids, ethanol conveys food fermentation, and DDMP with a caramel-type flavor has been found in many types of (heated) food. By responding to these rather general food-derived compounds, the omnivorous German cockroaches appear to exploit semiochemicals that indicate the presence of various food types, such as lipids and carbohydrates.
