American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are frequently a standout among the most detested household bugs. They can cause a significant commotion, particularly when you have flying cockroaches coming at you. There are 4,500 cockroach species on Earth. In Australia, There are six ordinary cockroach species that plague houses and establishments, one 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 slopes toward dull, muggy and undisturbed zones and can be found in subfloors, cellars, kitchens, roof voids and washrooms of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is found in seaside Australia, and as often as possible occupies channels. A typical feature for flying cockroaches is they are for the most part outside cockroaches, located in beachfront territories.

They’re fast concerning reproducing. The male species are highly sensitive to female cockroach pheromones, whereas the female ones are active in laying eggs. If they mate, they are able to produce 16 sacks or capsules with multiple eggs inside. What is more? Intriguing with the female cockroach is that without even mating, they could still produce eggs using saved sperm. All cockroaches can live up to 1 year.

The American cockroach loves dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Apart from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and located in coastal areas of Australia.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential houses are unusual. Their large size means that they are easy to see and capture. Their desire for hot temperatures also slows their development.

Residual pesticides are effective.
