Cockroaches are one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, specifically, when you’ve flying cockroaches coming at you. There are 4,500 Cockroach species which are globally identified. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague houses and companies, one in every of that is the American cockroach.

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade homes and commercial properties. Also known as the ‘Palmetto bug’ since they live on trees, the American cockroach favours dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be found in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and baths of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is found in coastal Australia, and often inhabits drains. A common characteristic of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches, located in coastal regions.

The man specie of this roach has high sensitivity to female cockroach pheromones. Whereas the female ones are proactive egg producers for they can lay a sack of 16 eggs after mating. One amazing fact though is that, even without mating, the female can lay eggs using saved sperm and can live up to one year.

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

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