American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially once you have flying cockroaches coming in you. There are 4,500 cockroach species in the world. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague homes and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

One of the common household 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.

They’re fast in terms of reproducing. The male species are highly sensitive to female cockroach pheromones, whereas the female ones are active in laying eggs. If they mate, they can produce 16 sacks or capsules with numerous eggs inside. What is more? Intriguing with all the female cockroach is that without even mating, they could still produce eggs using saved sperm. All cockroaches can live up to 1 year.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and might maneuver beneath doorways and into fairly small cracks. They select moist, humid areas, and normally live in environments in which temperatures at least a minimum of 29 degrees. They are typically found, drains, massive cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or underneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that choose to consume for natural things.

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

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

Below are hints which you can check if you’ve got a cockroach infestation at home:

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are nocturnal pests and they scavenge around the region for food consumption and they are less likely to be seen during the day but you can check areas where you think they’re hiding and nestling
• Droppings – cockroach droppings or stool lay on areas where they are usually nestled and sometimes the dropping accumulates in one area. The droppings are like black pepper grounds and vary in length
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – when roach develop, they experience molting (skin shedding) until they complete adult. Also, they leave vacated egg capsules behind or known as ootheca that encapsulates multiple eggs
• Damages – cockroaches love organic products and other than food, they assault natural materials like leather and books
• odor – cockroach infestations produce an ugly, rancid odor
