American Cockroaches

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

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade homes and business properties. Also called the ‘Palmetto bug’ since they live on trees, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be found in sub-floors, kitchens, kitchens, roof voids and bathrooms of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is located in coastal Australia, and frequently inhabits drains. A common feature of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches, found in coastal regions.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a couple of days before being saved. At times, these egg cases are cemented down and are usually grouped. It brings forth in 1 to 2 months. Nymphs more often than not produce in 6 months to a year, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

All cockroaches love to nestle in dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attics, roof voids and bathrooms. They can also be often inhabiting drains as well as coastal areas.

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

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

Below are signs which you can check if you have a cockroach infestation at home:

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are parasitic insects and they scavenge around the area for food consumption and they are less likely to be seen throughout the day but you can check areas where you think they are hiding and nestling
• Droppings – cockroach droppings or feces lay on areas where they’re usually nestled and sometimes the dropping accumulates in 1 area. The droppings are like black pepper grounds and change in length
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – roaches leave behind egg capsules that encapsulate multiple eggs and as they grow, they molt or shed skin over 5 times as they mature
• Damage – roaches will strike natural Items inclusive of leather-based details and books
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, damp smell

If you have noticed any cockroaches in your home, do not delay in calling a professional and certified pest control company to come and attend to the problem without delay. The more you defer attending to the issue, the greater the number of treatments necessary to eliminate the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Among the most effective ways of controlling a cockroach infestation is to prevent eliminating access to food and water:

• Do not leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Clear dishes and cutlery after use
• Keep your kitchen and dining tidy and mess-free
• Clean food wastes from under refrigerators or stoves
• Make sure dry and wet rubbish are put in separate trash bins and eliminate wet garbage immediately to prevent flies and cockroaches festering on it
• Keep refuse or compost in sealed bins
• Eliminate pet food, water and litter trays overnight
