American Cockroaches

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

American cockroaches is one of the largest cockroaches that invade the home and industrial establishments to invade houses and industrial residences. Also called the’Palmetto bug’ due to the fact they live on timber, the American cockroach prefers humid, dark and undisturbed areas and can be located in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and toilets of homes. They can fly and can be found in coastal Australia, and regularly inhabits drain. A common characteristic of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches and dwelt as well in coastal areas.

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

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely quickly, and can maneuver under doors and into fairly small cracks. They prefer damp, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average at least 29 degrees. Found 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 management experts.
