American cockroaches is just one of the biggest cockroaches that invade the home and industrial establishments to invade houses and industrial residences. Also called the’Palmetto bug’ due to the fact that they live on wood, the American cockroach prefers dark, humid and undisturbed regions and can be located in sub-floors, basements, kitchens, roof voids and bathrooms of houses. They could fly and can be found in coastal Australia, and regularly inhabits drain. A common feature of flying cockroaches is they are all outdoor cockroaches and dwelt as well in coastal areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs are carried by the female for several days before being deposited. Sometimes cemented down and tend to be grouped. It hatches in 1 – 2 months. Nymphs usually develop in 6 -12 months, but it can take up to 15 months.

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely quickly, and can maneuver beneath doors into fairly small cracks. They prefer moist, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average a minimum of 29 degrees. Found in sewers, drains, big cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or beneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that prefer organic matter.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are rare. Their large size means that they are easy to see and capture. Their taste for warm temperatures also slows their growth.

Residual insecticides are effective.
