American Cockroaches

Once we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, mechanically we scream. Cockroaches are the most despised pests and may stir commotion particularly when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches listed and there are 6 common ones that are known in Australia.

One of the common family roaches that we experience is the American cockroach. In other countries, it is called "Palmetto Water Bug". American cockroach is about 3 centimeters long. They are known to infest homes and businesses though they generally live outside.

The ootheca (egg case) containing as much as 16 eggs is carried with the aid of the female cockroach for several 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 keep growing in 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.

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