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 houses and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade homes and commercial properties. Also known as the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be seen in sub-floors, kitchens, kitchens, roof voids and baths of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is found 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 are carried by the female for several days before being deposited. Sometimes cemented down and are inclined to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs usually develop in 6 -12 months, but it can take up to 15 months.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and might maneuver beneath doors and into fairly small cracks. They select damp, humid areas, and normally live in surroundings in which temperatures at least a minimum of 29 degrees. They are typically founddrains, massive cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or underneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that opt to consume for natural things.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential houses are unusual. Their large size means they are easy to see and capture. Their desire for hot temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings through plumbing infrastructure, constructing foundations, or under doors, quitting those areas can help control preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

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

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they usually roam around at night or in areas that are dim or no light in any respect and they are less likely to be seen in well-lit areas or during the day
• Droppings – cockroaches leave a dust of black droppings less than 1mm wide and of varying lengths
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – when roach grow, they experience molting (skin shedding) until they complete adult. Also, they leave vacated egg capsules known as ootheca that encapsulates multiple eggs
• Harm – those insects will attack on natural products including leather and books
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, moist odor

If you have noticed any cockroaches in your personal home, do not postpone in calling a professional and authorised pest control expert to go to and attend to the problem soonest. The more you defer in attending to the issue, the greater the amount of treatments required to dispose of the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Here are some effective preventive measures you can do before calling assistance of the experts:

• Ensure sinks are dry and faucets aren’t leaking
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Clear dishes and cutlery after use
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Clean food debris from under refrigerators or stoves
• Take care with soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• If you have pets, make it a habit to remove pet food, water and litter trays overnight to reduce contamination
• Seal entry points you can see to stop the roaches gaining entrance into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entrance points throughout your home or commercial property can help prevent cockroaches from entering your property. Key risk areas are gaps under doors or around pipes to the exterior or neighbouring properties.

Fixing entry points going through your home or business property can help keep cockroaches from entering your property. They likely enter through holes beneath entryways or around funnels to the outside or neighbouring properties.

Will the spray cause harm to humans?
