American Cockroaches

When we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, automatically we scream. Cockroaches are the most hated pests and may stir commotion especially when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches recorded and there are 6 common ones which are known in Australia.

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

They are fast in terms of reproducing. The male species are highly sensitive to female cockroach pheromones, whereas the female ones are active in laying eggs. If they mate, they are able to produce 16 sacks or capsules with numerous eggs inside. What is more? Interesting with the female cockroach is that without even mating, they can still produce eggs using saved sperm. All cockroaches can live up to 1 year.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely quickly, and can maneuver beneath doors and into fairly small cracks. They prefer moist, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average a minimum of 29 degrees. Found in sewers, drains, large cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or under a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that favor organic matter.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are uncommon. Their large size means that they are easy to view and catch. Their taste for warm temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings via plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, stopping up these areas can help handle initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.
