American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing they are the most despised pests in the whole word. When we think of them, we imagine contamination and the diseases that they could spread among humans and animals. Cockroaches are cosmopolitan and there are 4,500 species identified and 6 of it are common in Australia.

One of the common family roaches is the American cockroach or also called the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the largest cockroaches that is proven to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but can also gain entry in buildings and household 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.

All cockroaches like to nestle in dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attics, roof voids and bathrooms. They can also be often inhabiting drains as well as coastal areas.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential houses are unusual. Their large size means they are easy to see and capture. Their desire for hot temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings through plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, stopping up those areas can help manipulate preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

The following are signs that you may have a cockroach infestation in your house:

• Viewing live insects – cockroaches are nocturnal and hide during the day, you will most likely see them when turning on the light in the kitchen at night
• Droppings – roach droppings or stool are like black pepper and change in lengths
• Egg capsules and moultings – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 days as they grow
• Harm – these insects will attack on natural products including leather and books
• odor – cockroach infestations produce an ugly, stale scent

If you have noticed any cockroaches in your home, do not delay in calling a skilled and certified pest control company to come and attend to the issue without delay. The more you defer attending to the matter, the greater the number of treatments required to eliminate the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Among the most effective ways of controlling a cockroach infestation is to remove their access to food and water:

• Try to not leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Clear used dishes and cutlery immediately
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Clear waste food, spillages and debris that are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, grills, grills and cupboards
• Make sure dry and wet rubbish are put in separate trash bins and dispose wet garbage immediately to prevent flies and cockroaches festering on it
• Keep refuse or compost in sealed bins
• Seal entry points you can see to stop the roaches gaining entry into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entry points throughout your home or business property can help prevent cockroaches from entering your property. Key risk areas are gaps under doors or around pipes to the exterior or neighbouring properties.

Sealing openings where cockroaches can hide will help by eliminating access to resting and breeding areas. Cockroaches are nocturnal and hide during the day in cracks and crevices in the walls, around skirting boards or behind electric sockets.
