American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often among the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially when 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 houses and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

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

The man specie of the roach has high sensitivity to female cockroach pheromones. Whereas the female ones are proactive egg producers because they can lay a sack of 16 eggs after mating. One amazing fact though is that, even without reproduction, the female can lay eggs using saved sperm and can live up to a year.

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

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are rare. Their large size means that they are easy to view and capture. Their preference for warm temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings via plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, quitting up these areas can help handle initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.
