American Cockroaches

The sight of cockroaches makes us cringe knowing that they are the most despised pests in the whole word. When we think of them, we envision contamination and the diseases they could spread among humans and animals. Cockroaches are cosmopolitan and there are 4,500 species identified and 6 of it are common in Australia.

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.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a few days before being saved. Sometimes, these egg cases are cemented down and tend to be 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.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extraordinarily fast and might maneuver beneath doors and into fairly small cracks. They select damp, humid areas, and normally live in surroundings in which temperatures at least a minimum of 29 degrees. They are typically discovered, drains, massive cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or underneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that opt to consume for natural things.

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

Below are hints which you can check if you have a cockroach infestation in home:

• Live cockroach – roaches are nocturnal pests and they usually 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 – 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 develop
• Harm – those insects will attack on natural products including leather and books
• Stale odor – when you can spot their nests, you can smell an unpleasant musty smell that roaches produce in their infestation

If you have noticed any cockroaches in your home, don’t delay in calling a skilled 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.

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.
