American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often among the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially once you have flying cockroaches coming at you. There are 4,500 cockroach species in the world. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague houses and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

One of the common household roaches which we encounter is the American cockroach. In other countries, it is known as "Palmetto Water Bug". American cockroach is about 3 centimeters long. They are known to infest homes and businesses although they generally live outdoors.

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.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely fast, and can maneuver beneath doors into fairly small cracks. They prefer moist, humid areas, and typically live in environments where temperatures average at least 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.

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

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

Below are signs 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 in any respect 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 are usually nestled and sometimes the dropping accumulates in 1 area. The droppings are like black pepper grounds and change in length
• Egg capsules and moultings – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 times as they grow
• Damage – roaches will strike organic goods including books and leather
• odor – based cockroach infestations produce an unpleasant, musty 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 problem without delay. The more you defer attending to the issue, 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 assistance of the specialists:

• Don’t leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Keep your meals in air-tight containers and sealed plastic bags
• Clear used dishes and cutlery immediately
• Keep your kitchen and dining tidy and mess-free
• Clean food wastes from under refrigerators or stoves
• Make sure dry and wet rubbish are put in separate trash bins and dispose wet garbage immediately to prevent flies and cockroaches festering on it
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Expel pet food, water and litter trays overnight

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 exterior or neighbouring properties.

Fixing entry points going through your home or business property can keep cockroaches from entering your property. They likely enter through holes beneath entryways or around funnels to the outside or neighbouring properties.
