The lifespan of a cockroach depends greatly on the species, with some living a matter of months, and others surviving for years. Here are some of the most common species and their lifespans:
German cockroach - These generally live for about 3 to 4 months.
American cockroach - These can live anywhere from 1 to 2 years.
Oriental cockroach - The lifespan of these cockroaches is normally about a year.
Surinamcockroach - These cockroaches also live for a year, give or take a month or two.
Madeira cockroach - This species generally live for no more than 2 years.
Brown-banded cockroach - The lifespan of this species is around 6 months.
Madagascan hissing cockroach - These will generally live for about 18 months.
Giant Burrowing cockroach - Live in Queensland and they can live for up to 10 years.
Adult cockroaches live for about a year, but have already lived for a year from egg stage, to adult. So the actual lifespan is about 2 years.
Unfortunately, like fleas, cockroaches are difficult to kill, which is why the little blighters have been around for many millions of years, (they can even survive radiation) and are amongst the most successful insects to inhabit the planet.
the giant burrowing cockroach can live for up to 7 years if cared for properly
The overall life span of cockroaches differs some live only a few months while others live for more than two years.
