American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing that they are the most despised pests in the whole word. When we think of them, we envision contamination and the diseases 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.

Cockroaches inflict the biggest nuisance when they infest homes and business establishments. Otherwise called the ‘Palmetto bug’ since they live on trees, the American cockroach slopes toward dull, muggy and undisturbed zones and can be found in subfloors, cellars, kitchens, roof voids and washrooms of houses. The American cockroach can fly and is found in seaside Australia, and as frequently as possible occupies channels. A typical feature for flying cockroaches is they are for the most part outdoor cockroaches, found in seaside territories.

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

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 found in coastal areas of Australia.

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 pipes infrastructure, constructing foundations, or under doors, stopping up those areas can help manipulate preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.
