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 in you. There are 4,500 cockroach species in the world. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague houses and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

One of the common household roaches which 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 although they generally live outside.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a couple of 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 weeks to annually, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

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

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential homes 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 pipes infrastructure, constructing foundations, or under doors, quitting those areas can help manipulate preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.
