American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially when you have flying cockroaches coming in 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 that we encounter 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 outside.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a couple of 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 weeks to annually, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

All cockroaches like to nestle in dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attics, roof voids and bathrooms. They can also be often inhabiting drains as well as coastal areas.

Infestations of American cockroaches in residential houses are unusual. Their large size means they are easy to see and capture. Their desire for hot temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings through plumbing infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, stopping up those areas can help manipulate preliminary infestations. Residual pesticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

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

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they generally roam around at night or in areas which are dim or no light in any respect and they are less likely to be seen in well-lit areas or during the day
• Droppings – cockroaches leave a dust of black droppings less than 1mm wide and of varying lengths
• Egg capsules and moultings – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 days as they grow
• Damages – cockroaches love organic goods and other than meals, they assault natural materials such as leather and books
• odor – established cockroach infestations produce an unpleasant, musty smell

If you’ve noticed any cockroaches in your personal home, do not postpone in calling a skilled and authorised pest control expert to go to and attend to the issue soonest. The more you defer in attending to the issue, the greater the number of treatments required to eliminate the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

A standout amongst the best methods for controlling a cockroach infestation is to stop their access to food and water:

• Try not to leave liquids in sinks or buckets overnight
• Keep your food in air-tight containers and sealed plastic bags
• Clear utilised dishes and cutlery immediately
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Clear waste food, spillages and debri which are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, refrigerators, drawers and cupboards
• Take good care of soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• Keep refuse or compost in sealed bins
• Seal entry points you can see to prevent the roaches gaining entrance into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entrance points throughout your home or business property can help prevent cockroaches from entering your property. Key risk areas are gaps under doors or around pipes to the outside or neighbouring properties.

Sealing openings where cockroaches can conceal will help by eliminating access to breeding and resting areas. Cockroaches are nocturnal and hide during the day in cracks and crevices in the walls, around skirting boards or behind electric sockets.
