American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing they are the most despised pests in the whole word. When we think of these, we envision contamination and the diseases that they could spread among people and animals. Cockroaches are cosmopolitan and there are 4,500 species identified and 6 of it are common in Australia.

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade homes and business properties. Also known as the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach favours dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be found in sub-floors, kitchens, kitchens, roof voids and bathrooms of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is found in coastal Australia, and often inhabits drains. A common feature of flying cockroaches is that they are all outdoor cockroaches, located in coastal areas.

The man specie of the roach has high sensitivity to female cockroach pheromones. Whereas the female ones are proactive egg producers because they can lay a sack of 16 eggs after mating. One wonderful fact though is that, even without reproduction, the female can lay eggs using saved sperm and can live up to a year.

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, large cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or beneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that prefer organic matter.

So if you suspect cockroach infestation in your household and surroundings, take immediate action by calling the nearest pest management experts.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

Below are hints which you can check if you’ve got a cockroach infestation in home:

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they usually roam around at night or in areas which are dim or no light at all and they are less likely to be seen in well-lit areas or during the day
• Droppings – cockroach droppings or stool lay on areas where they’re usually nestled and sometimes the dropping accumulates in one area. The droppings are like black pepper grounds and vary in length
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – roaches leave behind egg capsules that encapsulate multiple eggs and as they develop, they molt or shed skin over 5 times as they mature
• Damage – roaches will attack organic goods including books and leather
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, moist odor

If you’ve noticed any cockroaches in your home, don’t delay in calling a skilled and certified pest control company to come and attend to the issue without delay. The more you defer attending to the matter, the more the number of treatments required to eliminate the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Here are some effective preventive step you can do before calling help of the specialists:

• Try to not leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Keep your food in air-tight containers and sealed plastic bags
• Clear used dishes and cutlery immediately
• Keep your kitchen and dining clean and mess-free
• Clear waste food, spillages and debri that are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, grills, grills and cupboards
• Take care with soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• Keep refuse or compost in sealed bins
• Seal entry points you can see to prevent the roaches gaining entrance into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entry points throughout your home or commercial property can help prevent cockroaches from entering your property. Key risk areas are gaps under doors or around pipes to the outside or neighbouring properties.

Sealing gaps where cockroaches can hide will help by eliminating access to resting and breeding areas. Cockroaches are nocturnal and hide during the day in cracks and crevices in the walls, around skirting boards or behind electric sockets.
