American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing that they are the most hated pests in the whole word. When we think of these, we imagine contamination and the diseases that they could spread among people and animals. Cockroaches are cosmopolitan and there are 4,500 species identified and 6 of it are common in Australia.

American cockroaches is just one of the largest cockroaches that invade the home and industrial institutions to invade homes and industrial residences. Also called the’Palmetto bug’ due to the fact that they live on wood, the American cockroach prefers humid, dark and undisturbed regions and can be found in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and toilets of homes. They can fly and can be found in coastal Australia, and regularly inhabits drain. A common characteristic of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches and dwelt as well in coastal areas.

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

All cockroaches like to nestle in dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attics, roof voids and bathrooms. They can also be often inhabiting drains as well as coastal areas.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are rare. Their large size means that they are easy to view and capture. Their preference for warm temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings via plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, quitting up these areas can help manage initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.

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 outside or neighbouring properties.
