American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often among the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially once you have flying cockroaches coming in you. There are 4,500 cockroach species on the planet. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague houses and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

Cockroaches inflict the biggest nuisance when they infest homes and business establishments. Otherwise called the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach inclines toward dull, muggy and undisturbed zones and can be seen in subfloors, cellars, kitchens, roof voids and washrooms of houses. The American cockroach can fly and is located in beachfront Australia, and as often as possible occupies channels. A typical characteristic for flying cockroaches is that they are for the most part outside cockroaches, found in seaside territories.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs are carried by the female for several days before being deposited. Sometimes cemented down and are inclined to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs usually develop in 6 -12 months, but it can take up to 15 months.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and might maneuver beneath doorways and into fairly small cracks. They select damp, humid areas, and normally live in environments in which temperatures at least a minimum of 29 degrees. They are typically discovered, drains, massive cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or underneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that opt to consume for natural matters.

Hazardous infestations of American cockroaches in private structures are exceptional. Their substantial size implies that they are anything but hard to see and catch. Their inclination for warm temperatures additionally moderates their development as American cockroaches will enter structures through pipe frame, building institutions, or underneath entryways, sealing these sites can help prevent initial infestations.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

Below are signs that you might have a cockroach infestation in your home:

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they usually roam around at night or in areas which are dim or no light in any respect and they are less likely to be seen in well-lit areas or during the day
• Droppings – roach droppings or feces are like black pepper and vary in lengths
• Egg cases and cast skins – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 days as they mature
• Damage – roaches will strike organic goods including leather and books
• odor – established cockroach infestations produce an unpleasant, musty odor

Short-term solutions will do no good and less powerful, hence, whether it’s a cockroach problem or any other pest problems, long term control plans are still the best.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Here are some effective preventive measures you can do before calling assistance of the experts:

• Try to not leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Keep your food in air-tight containers and sealed plastic bags
• Clear used dishes and cutlery immediately
• Keep your kitchen and dining tidy and mess-free
• Clear waste food, spillages and debris which are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, refrigerators, drawers and cupboards
• Make sure dry and wet rubbish are put in separate trash bins and dispose wet garbage immediately to prevent flies and cockroaches festering on it
• Maintain refuse or compost in sealed bins
• Seal entry points you can see to stop the roaches gaining entrance into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entry points throughout your home or commercial property can help prevent cockroaches from entering your property. Key risk areas are gaps under doors or around pipes to the exterior or neighbouring properties.

Sealing openings where cockroaches can conceal will help by removing access to breeding and resting areas. Cockroaches are nocturnal and hide during the day in cracks and crevices in the walls, around skirting boards or behind electrical sockets.
