American Cockroaches

When we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, mechanically we shout. Cockroaches are the most despised pests and may stir commotion especially when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches listed and there are 6 common types which are known in Australia.

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade homes and commercial properties. Also called the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be seen in sub-floors, kitchens, kitchens, roof voids and baths of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is located in coastal Australia, and often inhabits drains. A common feature of flying cockroaches is that they are all outdoor cockroaches, located in coastal areas.

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

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely fast, and can maneuver under doors and into fairly small cracks. They prefer damp, humid areas, and typically live in environments where temperatures average a minimum of 29 degrees. Found in sewers, drains, large cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or under a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that prefer organic matter.

Hazardous infestations of American cockroaches in private structures are exceptional. Their substantial size implies that they are anything but hard to see and catch. Their inclination for warm temperatures also moderates their development as American cockroaches will enter structures through pipe frame, building institutions, or under entryways, sealing these sites can help prevent first infestations.
