American Cockroaches

Once we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, mechanically we scream. Cockroaches are the most despised pests and can stir commotion particularly when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches listed and there are 6 common types which are known in Australia.

One of the common household roaches is the American cockroach or also called the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the largest cockroaches that is proven to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but may also gain entrance in buildings and household areas.

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.

The American cockroach enjoys dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Apart from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and found in coastal regions of Australia.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential houses are unusual. Their large size means they are easy to see and capture. Their desire for hot temperatures additionally slows their development.

Residual pesticides are effective.
