American Cockroaches

Once we hear about roaches and even just the sight of it, automatically we scream. Cockroaches are the most despised pests and may stir commotion particularly when they fly. Globally, there are approximately 4,500 species of cockroaches recorded and there are 6 common types which are known in Australia.

One of the common household roaches is the American cockroach or also called the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the largest cockroaches that is proven to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but may also gain entry in buildings and household areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a couple of days before being saved. 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 loves dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Aside from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and located in coastal regions of Australia.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are uncommon. Their large size means that they are easy to view and capture. Their taste for warm temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches tend to enter buildings via pipes infrastructure, building foundations, or under doors, stopping up these areas will help manage initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

Below are signs that you might have a cockroach infestation in your house:

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they generally roam around at night or in areas which are dim or no light at all and they are less likely to be seen in well-lit areas or during the day
• Droppings – cockroach droppings or stool lay on areas where they’re usually nestled and sometimes the dropping accumulates in one area. The droppings are like black pepper grounds and vary in length
• Egg capsules and moultings – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 days as they mature
• Damages – aside from food, cockroaches love to consume organic goods like leather and books
• Scent – dominant cockroach infestations produce a terrible, moist odor

If you have noticed any cockroaches in your home, do not delay in calling a professional and certified pest control company to come and attend to the issue without delay. The more you defer attending to the issue, the more the number of treatments required to eliminate the pests.

Controlling a Cockroach Infestation

Among the most effective ways of controlling a cockroach infestation is to remove their access to food and water:

• Ensure sinks are dry and taps aren’t leaking
• Keep your meals in air-tight containers and sealed plastic bags
• Clear used dishes and cutlery immediately
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Clean food debris from under refrigerators or stoves
• Take care with soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• Store food in containers or in sealed plastic bags
• Seal entry points you can see to prevent the roaches gaining entrance into your household

Preventing and Getting Rid of Cockroaches

Sealing entry 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 gaps where cockroaches can conceal will help by removing 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.
