There are 4,500 Cockroach species that are globally identified. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague homes and businesses, one in each of that is the American cockroach.

One of the common household roaches is the American cockroach or also called the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the biggest cockroaches that is proven to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but may also gain entrance in buildings and household areas.

The ootheca (egg case) including as much as 16 eggs is carried with the assistance of the female cockroach for many days before being deposited. Sometimes they’re 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 continue to grow in 15 months.

The American cockroach loves dark and humid places like sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Apart from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and located in coastal areas of Australia.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my household pets be affected by the treatment you employ?

The safety of your pets is extremely important to us. You may rest assured that any active component they come in contact with, whether it’s still damp or by inhaling or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Can the spray cause any harm to humans?

The spray we apply is usually used in public places such as schools and hospitals and has no adverse effects to human beings.

What do I do if I accidently touch any of the areas sprayed?

It’s only of concern if the spray areas remain wet. Should this happen, wash with soap and plenty of water as fast as you are able to. After a relatively short period duration, your water carrier tap water has gone out of the water and will not cause any harm to you when you come in contact with the area.
