American Cockroaches

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

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

They’re fast in terms of reproducing. The male species are highly sensitive to female cockroach pheromones, whereas the female ones are active in laying eggs. When they mate, they are able to produce 16 sacks or capsules with numerous eggs inside. What is more? Interesting with all the female cockroach is that without even mating, they could still produce eggs using saved sperm. All cockroaches can live up to 1 year.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely fast, 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. Located in sewers, drains, large cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or under a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that prefer organic matter.

So if you suspect cockroach infestation in your household and surroundings, take immediate action by calling the nearest pest control experts.
