American Cockroaches

Once we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, mechanically we shout. Cockroaches are the most despised pests and may stir commotion particularly when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches recorded and there are 6 common types that are known in Australia.

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

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs are carried by the female for several days before being deposited. Sometimes cemented down and tend to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs usually develop in 6 -12 months, but it can take up to 15 months.

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

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

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

The following are signs that you will possess a cockroach infestation in your home:

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they usually roam around at night or in areas that are dim or no light at all and they are less likely to be seen in well-lit areas or during the day
• Droppings – cockroach droppings or feces lay on areas where they’re usually nestled and sometimes the dropping accumulates in 1 area. The droppings are like black pepper grounds and vary in length
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – roaches leave behind egg capsules which encapsulate multiple eggs and as they develop, they molt or shed skin over 5 times as they mature
• Damage – roaches will attack organic goods including books and leather
• odor – established cockroach infestations produce an unpleasant, musty odor

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

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

One of the most effective ways of controlling a cockroach infestation would be to eliminate their access to food and water:

• Try to not leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Clear dishes and cutlery after use
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Sterile food debris from under refrigerators or stoves
• Take good care of soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• If you have pets, make it a habit to eliminate pet food, water and litter trays overnight to prevent contamination
• Seal entry points you can see to prevent the roaches gaining entry into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

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 outside or neighbouring properties.

Sealing gaps where cockroaches can conceal will help by eliminating access to breeding and resting areas. Cockroaches are nocturnal and hide during the day in cracks and crevices in the walls, around skirting boards or behind electrical sockets.
