American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, specifically, when you have flying cockroaches coming at you. There are 4,500 Cockroach species that are globally identified. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague homes and businesses, one in every of that is the American cockroach.

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade houses and commercial properties. Also known as the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach favours dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be seen in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and baths of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is located in coastal Australia, and frequently inhabits drains. A common feature of flying cockroaches is that they are all outdoor cockroaches, found in coastal 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 amazing fact though is that, even without mating, the female can lay eggs using saved sperm and can live up to a year.

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.

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 also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings through pipes infrastructure, constructing foundations, or under doors, stopping up those areas can help manipulate preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

To know if you have roach problems, here are signs you can look to assume their existence.

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they generally 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 residue of dark droppings under 1mm wide and of varying size
• Egg instances and cast skins – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 days as they grow
• Damages – cockroaches love organic products and other than food, they attack natural materials such as leather and books
• odor – based cockroach infestations produce an unpleasant, musty smell

Short-term solutions will do no good and less powerful, hence, whether it is a cockroach problem or another pest issues, long term control programs are still the best.

Sealing entrance points throughout your home or business 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.
