American Cockroaches

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

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

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs are carried by the female for several days before being deposited. Sometimes cemented down and are inclined to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs usually develop in 6 -12 months, but it can take up to 15 months.

All cockroaches like to nestle in dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attics, roof voids and bathrooms. They can also be frequently inhabiting drains as well as coastal areas.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential houses are unusual. Their large size means 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 control preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

The following are signs that you may possess a cockroach infestation in your house:

• Live cockroaches – cockroaches are nocturnal and hide in the course of the day, you will likely see them whilst powering on the light in the kitchen during the night
• Droppings – roach droppings or feces are like black pepper and vary in lengths
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – when roach grow, they experience molting (skin shedding) until they complete adult. Also, they leave vacated egg capsules known as ootheca that encapsulates multiple eggs
• Damage – roaches will strike natural Items inclusive of leather-based details and books
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, damp smell

Short-term solutions will do no good and less effective, hence, whether it’s a cockroach problem or another pest issues, long term management plans are still the best.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

A standout among the best methods for controlling a cockroach infestation is to stop their access to food and water:

• Ensure sinks are dry and faucets aren’t leaking
• Keep your food in air-tight containers and sealed plastic bags
• Clear utilised dishes and cutlery immediately
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Clear waste food, spillages and debri which are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, refrigerators, drawers and cupboards
• Make sure wet and dry rubbish are put in separate trash bins and dispose wet garbage immediately to prevent flies and cockroaches festering on it
• If you have pets, make it a habit to remove pet food, water and litter trays overnight to reduce contamination
• Expel pet food, water and litter trays overnight

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

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