Cockroaches are one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, specifically, when you’ve flying cockroaches coming in you. There are 4,500 Cockroach species that are globally identified. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague houses and businesses, one in every of that’s the American cockroach.

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

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

Despite their size, these cockroaches move extremely fast, and can maneuver beneath doors and into fairly small cracks. They prefer damp, humid areas, and typically live in surroundings where temperatures average at least 29 degrees. Located in sewers, drains, large cracks or nooks around a building’s foundations or beneath a building. American cockroaches are scavengers that prefer organic matter.
