American Cockroaches

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

One of the common household roaches that we experience 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 outside.

They are 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 can 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.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and may maneuver beneath doors and into fairly small cracks. They select moist, humid areas, and normally live in surroundings in which temperatures at least a minimum of 29 degrees. They are typically founddrains, massive cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or underneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that choose to consume for natural things.

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, quitting those areas can help control preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.
