American Cockroaches

When 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.

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

The male specie of the roach has high sensitivity to female cockroach pheromones. Whereas the female ones are proactive egg producers for they could lay a sack of 16 eggs after mating. One amazing fact though is that, even without reproduction, the female can lay eggs using saved sperm and can live up to one year.

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 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

Below are signs which you can check if you’ve got a cockroach infestation at home:

• Droppings – cockroaches leave a residue of dark droppings under 1mm wide and of varying dimensions
• Egg capsule and moult (sheddings) – when roach grow, they experience molting (skin shedding) until they full adult. Also, they leave vacated egg capsules known as ootheca which encapsulates multiple eggs
• Harm – these insects will attack on natural products including leather and books
• Unpleasant odor -cockroach emit unpleasant odors in areas where they generally infest

If infestation is large and cannot be dealt by you alone, call in the support of the nearest pest control expert in town. But, there are also preventative steps you can do to protect your family and pets.

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 exterior or neighbouring properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

My pets in the household will be affected by the treatments you use?

The security of your pet is a top priority for us. You may rest assured that any active component they may come into contact with, whether it’s still wet or by inhaling or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Will the spray cause harm to humans?

The spray we employ is typically used in public places such as hospitals and schools and has no adverse effects on humans.

What should I do if I accidentally touch any of the areas that have been sprayed?

This is only a concern if the sprayed areas are still damp. Should this happen, wash with soap and plenty of water as fast as you are able to. In a short amount of time, the water carrier tap water has evaporated and won’t cause any harm to you should you come into contact with the area.
