American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing that they are the most despised pests in the whole word. When we think of these, we envision contamination and the diseases that they can spread among humans and animals. Cockroaches are cosmopolitan and there are 4,500 species identified and 6 of it are common in Australia.

One of the common family roaches which we encounter 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 though they generally live outdoors.

The ootheca (egg case) containing as much as 16 eggs is carried with the aid of the female cockroach for many days before being deposited. Sometimes they’re 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.

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

Hazardous infestations of American cockroaches privately structures are exceptional. Their substantial size implies that they are anything but difficult to see and catch. Their inclination for warm temperatures additionally moderates their development as American cockroaches will enter structures through pipe frame, building institutions, or underneath entryways, sealing these sites can help prevent initial infestations.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

To know if you have roach problems, here are tell-tale signs you can check on your home:

• Seeing live roaches – cockroaches are nocturnal and cover up during the day, you will probably observe them when turning on the light in the kitchen during the evening
• Droppings – cockroaches leave a residue of dark droppings under 1mm wide and of varying size
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – roaches leave behind egg capsules which encapsulate multiple eggs and as they develop, they molt or shed skin more than 5 times as they mature
