American Cockroaches

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

One of the common family roaches is the American cockroach or also known as the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the biggest cockroaches that is proven to invade homes and businesses. Generally, they live outdoors but may also gain entry in buildings and household areas.

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.

The American cockroach enjoys dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Aside from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and located in coastal regions of Australia.

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