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 houses and companies, one in each of that is the American cockroach.

It is among the largest pest cockroaches to invade houses and business properties. Also called the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be seen in sub-floors, kitchens, kitchens, roof voids and bathrooms of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is located in coastal Australia, and often inhabits drains. A common feature 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 couple of days before being saved. 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 produce in 6 weeks to annually, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and may maneuver beneath doors and into fairly small cracks. They select damp, humid areas, and normally live in surroundings in which temperatures at least a minimum of 29 degrees. They are typically founddrains, massive cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or underneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that opt to consume for natural matters.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential homes are unusual. Their large size means that 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, constructing foundations, or under doors, stopping up those areas can help control preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.
