American Cockroaches

Once we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, mechanically we shout. Cockroaches are the most despised pests and may stir commotion particularly when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches listed and there are 6 common types that are known in Australia.

One of the common household roaches that we encounter is the American cockroach. In other countries, it is known as "Palmetto Water Bug". American cockroach is about 3 centimeters long. They are known to infest homes and businesses though they generally live outside.

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

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and might maneuver beneath doorways and into fairly small cracks. They pick damp, humid areas, and normally live in surroundings 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 matters.

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