American Cockroaches

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

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 although they generally live outdoors.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a few days before being stored. At times, these egg cases are cemented down and are usually grouped. It brings forth in 1 to 2 months. Nymphs more often than not create in 6 months to a year, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

The American cockroach enjoys dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Aside from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and found in coastal regions of Australia.

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

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

The following are signs that you may have a cockroach infestation in your home:

• 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 throughout the day but you can check areas where you think they are hiding and nestling
• Droppings – cockroaches leave a dust of black droppings less than 1mm wide and of varying lengths
• Egg cases and cast skins – cockroaches shed their skin 5 to 8 times as they grow
• Damage – roaches will attack organic goods including leather and books
• odor – cockroach infestations produce an ugly, rancid 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 problem 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

A standout among the best methods for controlling a cockroach infestation is to stop 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
• Keep your kitchen and dining clean and mess-free
• Clean food wastes from under refrigerators or stoves
• Make sure wet and dry rubbish are put in separate trash bins and dispose wet garbage immediately to prevent flies and cockroaches festering on it
• If you have pets, make it a habit to eliminate pet food, water and litter trays overnight to reduce contamination
• Remove pet food, water and litter trays overnight
