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.

Cockroaches impose the biggest nuisance when they infest homes and business establishments. Otherwise called the ‘Palmetto bug’ since they reside on trees, the American cockroach slopes toward dull, muggy and undisturbed zones and can be seen in subfloors, cellars, kitchens, roof voids and washrooms of houses. The American cockroach can fly and is found in seaside Australia, and as frequently as possible occupies channels. A typical feature for flying cockroaches is they are for the most part outside cockroaches, found in seaside lands.

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 into fairly small cracks. They prefer damp, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average a minimum of 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.
