American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often one of 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.

One of the common family roaches which we experience is the American cockroach. In other countries, it is called "Palmetto Water Bug". American cockroach is about 3 centimeters long. They are known to infest homes and businesses though they generally live outdoors.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a few days before being stored. At times, these egg cases are cemented down and are usually grouped. It brings forth in 1 to 2 months. Nymphs more often than not create in 6 months 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 areas of Australia.

Hazardous infestations of American cockroaches in private structures are exceptional. Their substantial size implies that they are anything but difficult 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.
