American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, specifically, when you have flying cockroaches coming at you. There are 4,500 Cockroach species that are globally identified. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague homes and businesses, one in every of that’s the American cockroach.

One of the common household roaches that we encounter is the American cockroach. In other countries, it is known as "Palmetto Water Bug". American cockroach is about 3 centimeters long. They are known to infest homes and businesses though they generally live outdoors.

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.

The American cockroach loves dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Apart from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and located in coastal regions of Australia.
