Also known as the’Palmetto bug’ due to the fact that they live on timber, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be located in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and toilets of houses. They can fly and can be found in coastal Australia, and regularly inhabits drain. A common feature of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches and lived as well in coastal areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a few days before being saved. At times, these egg cases are cemented down and are usually grouped. It brings forth in 1 to 2 months. Nymphs more often than not produce in 6 months to annually, yet it can take as long as 15 months.
