American Cockroaches

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

Cockroaches impose the biggest nuisance when they infest homes and business establishments. Otherwise called the ‘Palmetto bug’ because they live on trees, the American cockroach inclines toward dull, muggy and undisturbed zones and can be seen in subfloors, cellars, kitchens, roof voids and washrooms of houses. The American cockroach can fly and is located in beachfront Australia, and as frequently as possible occupies channels. A typical feature for flying cockroaches is they are for the most part outdoor cockroaches, located in beachfront territories.

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.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely fast, and can maneuver under doors into fairly small cracks. They prefer damp, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average at least 29 degrees. Found in sewers, drains, big cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or beneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that favor organic matter.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are rare. Their large size means that they are easy to see and capture. Their preference for warm temperatures also slows their growth. As American cockroaches are inclined to enter buildings via plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or beneath doors, stopping up these areas will help handle initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

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

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are parasitic insects and they scavenge around the region for food consumption and they are less likely to be seen during the day but you can check areas where you think they’re hiding and nestling
• Droppings – cockroaches leave a dust of black droppings less than 1mm wide and of varying lengths
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – when roach develop, they experience molting (skin shedding) until they complete adult. Also, they leave vacated egg capsules behind or known as ootheca which encapsulates multiple eggs
• Damage – roaches will strike organic goods including leather and books
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, damp smell

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