American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing they are the most hated pests in the whole word. When we think of these, we envision contamination and the diseases that they could spread among humans and animals. Cockroaches are cosmopolitan and there are 4,500 species identified and 6 of it are common in Australia.

One of the common family roaches which we experience is the American cockroach. In other countries, it is called "Palmetto Water Bug". American cockroach is about 3 centimeters long. They are known to infest homes and businesses although they generally live outdoors.

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.

The American cockroach enjoys dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Apart from thriving as outside pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and found in coastal areas of Australia.

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