American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, specifically, when you’ve 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 homes and companies, one in each of that is the American cockroach.

One of the common household roaches is the American cockroach or also known as the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the biggest cockroaches that is proven to invade homes and businesses. Generally, they live outdoors but may also gain entry in buildings and household areas.

The male specie of the roach has high sensitivity to female cockroach pheromones. Whereas the female ones are proactive egg producers for they could 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.

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.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are rare. Their large size means that they are easy to view and capture. Their preference for warm temperatures also slows their growth. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings via plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, quitting up these areas will help manage initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.
