Have you felt your heart skip a beat—and not in a good way—upon turning on the lights and catching sight of an army of cockroaches scuttling away?

The two main types of cockroaches found in Perth
​
German Cockroach. (Blattella germanica).
This small species, light amber in colour, infests kitchens, water heaters, fridges and stoves. It is a prolific breeder and can take as little as 40 days to develop from hatching to adulthood. It is commonly transported to new locations in food packages, cardboard boxes and the like. Successful treatment of this pest involves close attention to cracks and crevices.
American cockroach (Periplaneta Americana).
These pests are larger and originate from outdoors. They are often found in subfloors, roof areas and wall cavities. The American cockroach is fully winged, meaning it can reach many household areas. Egg cases glued to packages may help in their dispersal. While exterior treatments may be sufficient, both interior and exterior areas may need to be treated to ensure the best possible coverage.
