American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially once you have flying cockroaches coming at 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.

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

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a few days before being stored. At times, 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 months 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 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 beneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that favor organic matter.

So if you suspect cockroach infestation in your household and surroundings, take immediate action by calling the nearest pest control experts.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

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

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are parasitic insects and they scavenge around the area for food consumption and they are less likely to be seen throughout the day but you can check areas where you think they’re hiding and nestling
• Droppings – cockroaches leave a residue of dark droppings under 1mm wide and of varying dimensions
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – roaches leave behind egg capsules which encapsulate multiple eggs and as they grow, they molt or shed skin over 5 times as they mature
• Harm – those insects will attack on natural products including leather and books
• odor – based cockroach infestations produce an unpleasant, musty smell

If you’ve seen any cockroaches on your home, do not postpone in calling a specialist and guaranteed pest management services to come and take care of the issue immediately. The more you allow the delay of taking care of the matter, the more treatments are required to eradicate the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Here are some effective preventive measures you can do before calling help of the specialists:

• Try to not leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Clear dishes and cutlery after use
• Keep your kitchen and dining clean and mess-free
• Clear waste food, spillages and debri that are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, refrigerators, drawers and cupboards
• Take good care of soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• If you have pets, make it a habit to remove pet food, water and litter trays overnight to prevent contamination
• Expel pet food, water and litter trays overnight

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

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