American Cockroaches

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

American cockroaches is one of the largest cockroaches that invade the house and industrial institutions to invade houses 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 bathrooms of houses. They can fly and can be found in coastal Australia, and regularly inhabits drain. A common feature of flying cockroaches is that they are all outdoor cockroaches and lived as well in coastal areas.

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 are usually 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.

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

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