American Cockroaches

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

One of the common household roaches which 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 although they generally live outdoors.

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

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely quickly, and can maneuver under doors and into fairly small cracks. They prefer moist, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average a minimum of 29 degrees. Found in sewers, drains, big cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or under a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that favor organic matter.

Hazardous infestations of American cockroaches privately structures are exceptional. Their substantial size implies that they are anything but hard to see and catch. Their inclination for warm temperatures also moderates their development as American cockroaches will enter structures through pipe frame, building institutions, or under entryways, sealing these sites can help prevent initial infestations.
