American Cockroaches

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

Cockroaches impose the biggest nuisance when they infest homes and business establishments. Otherwise called the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they reside on trees, the American cockroach inclines toward dull, muggy and undisturbed zones and can be seen in subfloors, cellars, kitchens, roof voids and washrooms of houses. The American cockroach can fly and is located in beachfront Australia, and as often as possible occupies channels. A typical characteristic for flying cockroaches is that they are for the most part outside cockroaches, located in beachfront territories.

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 such as 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.

Hazardous infestations of American cockroaches in private structures are exceptional. Their substantial size implies they are anything but hard to see and catch. Their inclination for warm temperatures additionally moderates their development as American cockroaches will enter structures through pipe framework, building establishments, or underneath entryways, sealing these sites can help prevent initial infestations.
