American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often among the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially when you have flying cockroaches coming in 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 just one of the largest cockroaches that invade the house and industrial institutions to invade homes and industrial residences. Also known as the’Palmetto bug’ due to the fact that they live on timber, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be found in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and toilets of homes. They could fly and can be found in coastal Australia, and regularly inhabits drain. A common feature of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches and lived as well in coastal areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs are carried by the female for several days before being deposited. Sometimes cemented down and are inclined to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs usually develop in 6 -12 months, but it can take up to 15 months.

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

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are uncommon. 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 pipes infrastructure, building foundations, or beneath doors, stopping up these areas can help handle initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.
