American Cockroaches

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

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

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a few days before being stored. Sometimes, these egg cases are cemented down and tend to be grouped. It brings forth in 1 to 2 months. Nymphs more often than not produce in 6 weeks to a year, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely quickly, and can maneuver under doors into fairly small cracks. They prefer damp, humid areas, and typically live in environments where temperatures average a minimum of 29 degrees. Located in sewers, drains, big cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or beneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that favor organic matter.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential homes are unusual. Their large size means that they are easy to see and capture. Their desire for hot temperatures additionally slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings through pipes infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, stopping up those areas can help control preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.
