American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing they are the most hated pests in the whole word. When we think of them, we imagine contamination and the diseases they could spread among people 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 is the American cockroach or also known as the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the biggest cockroaches that is known to invade homes and businesses. Generally, they live outdoors but may also gain entry in buildings and household areas.

The ootheca (egg case) including as much as 16 eggs is carried with the aid of the female cockroach for several days before being deposited. Sometimes they are cemented down and have a tendency to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs typically develop in 6 -12 months, however, it can continue to grow in 15 months.

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

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are uncommon. Their large size means that they are easy to see and capture. Their preference 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 will help manage initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.

To know if you have roach problems, here are signs you can look to assume their existence.
