American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often among the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially once you have flying cockroaches coming in you. There are 4,500 cockroach species in the world. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague homes and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

One of the common household 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 though they generally live outdoors.

They’re fast in terms of reproducing. The male species are highly sensitive to female cockroach pheromones, whereas the female ones are active in laying eggs. When they mate, they are able to produce 16 sacks or capsules with numerous eggs inside. What is more? Interesting 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 enjoys dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Aside from thriving as outside pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and found in coastal areas of Australia.

So if you suspect cockroach infestation in your household and environment, take immediate action by calling the nearest pest control experts.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

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

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are parasitic insects and they scavenge around the area 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 – roach droppings or feces are like black pepper and change in lengths
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – when roach grow, they experience molting (skin shedding) until they full adult. Additionally, the leave vacated egg capsules behind or known as ootheca which encapsulates multiple eggs
• Damage – roaches will attack organic goods including books and leather
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, moist odor

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

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Here are some effective preventive measures you can do before calling assistance of the specialists:

• Try not to leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight

• Clear waste food, spillages and debris that are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, refrigerators, drawers and cupboards
• Take good care of soiled napkins or dirty clothing

• Seal entry points you can see to stop the roaches gaining entry into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entryways in the course of your industrial or house assets can help prevent cockroaches from moving into your home. Check your area for gaps under pipes or doorways or neighbouring houses.
