American Cockroaches

When we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, automatically we shout. Cockroaches are the most hated pests and may stir commotion particularly when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches listed and there are 6 common ones which are known in Australia.

One of the common family roaches is the American cockroach or also known as the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the biggest cockroaches that is known to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but can also gain entrance in buildings and household areas.

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

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.

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