American Cockroaches

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

One of the common family roaches is the American cockroach or also called the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the largest cockroaches that is known to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but can also gain entrance in buildings and household areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing as much as 16 eggs is carried with the assistance of the female cockroach for many days before being deposited. Sometimes they are cemented down and have a tendency to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs typically develop in 6 -12 months, however, it can continue to grow in 15 months.

All cockroaches love 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.

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

The following are signs that you may have a cockroach infestation in your home:

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are nocturnal pests and they scavenge around the area for food consumption and they are less likely to be seen throughout the day but you can check areas where you think they’re hiding and nestling

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 outside or neighbouring properties.
