• German cockroach:

The German cockroach is a troubling pest all over the world.

German roaches are a major threat to both homes and businesses as they can spread like wildfire as they have one of the fastest breeding rates amongst the cockroaches.

The roaches are not limited to a few sources of food. They can devour all kinds of packed, processed, raw and even stored food supplies.

German cockroaches can hitch rides on sacks and shopping bags. It might even reach your homes by deliveries of a various assortment of products like furniture and electronics.

Cockroaches can easily survive inside packages without food and water.

Moisture and heat attract the German cockroaches. They infest the kitchen, galley bathrooms and laundry.

• Oriental cockroach:

Oriental cockroaches are everywhere in Australia. These are black and brown and are larger than most cockroaches reaching nearly 25mm in length.

Female oriental cockroaches are wingless and can lay many eggs in a short period.

Male oriental cockroaches have wings but they prefer to crawl rather than fly.

Oriental cockroaches are highly adaptive species and prefer damp and cold environments. They receive optimum conditions in drains and basements.

• American cockroach:

American cockroaches strike fear due to their sheer massive size. They can be up to 40mm long.

Red complexion also adds to their intimidation factor.

Males have wings longer than their bodies while females are a bit smaller and have relatively short wingspan.

Usually, American roaches crawl run but if they feel threatened or in warm temperatures they can fly as well. This makes it difficult to get rid of American cockroaches without professional help.

American roaches prefer dark and humid areas where they are left alone and have room to move about. Commonly they can be found infesting floorings, roofs, and bathroom drains.
