American Cockroaches

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

It is one of the largest pest cockroaches to invade houses and business properties. Also known as the ‘Palmetto bug’ since they live on trees, the American cockroach favours dark, humid and undisturbed areas and can be found in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and bathrooms of homes. The American cockroach can fly and is found in coastal Australia, and frequently inhabits drains. A common feature of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches, located in coastal areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing as much as 16 eggs is carried with the aid of the female cockroach for many days before being deposited. Sometimes they are cemented down and have a tendency to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs typically develop in 6 -12 months, however, it can keep growing in 15 months.

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

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

Identifying You Have a Cockroach Problem

To know if you have roach issues, here are signs you can look to assume their existence.

• Presence of live cockroach – roaches in general are nocturnal pests 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 – cockroaches leave a dust of black droppings less than 1mm wide and of varying lengths
• Egg cases and cast skins – cockroaches shed their skin 5-8 times as they mature
• Damages – cockroaches love organic goods and other than meals, they attack natural materials such as leather and books
• Unpleasant odor -cockroach exude unpleasant odors in areas where they generally infest

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

Among the most effective ways of controlling a cockroach infestation would be to stop eliminating 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
• Clean all waste food and spillages immediately
• Clear waste food, spillages and debris which are stuck in tight areas like under stoves, grills, grills and cupboards
• Take care with soiled napkins or dirty clothing
• If you have pets, make it a habit to remove pet food, water and litter trays overnight to prevent contamination
• 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 commercial 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 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 electrical sockets.
