What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or could be opened an old wooden container simply to get surprised while these white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we’re talking about silverfish.

Silverfish have been on the ground hundreds of thousands of years in the past before dinosaurs. Meaning, insects like them have lived for 400 million years! They are small wingless bugs, with the fish-like look and are whitish-grey in colour. They are harmless and there had been no recognised proof that they cause diseases or introduce toxin, however, they are considered pests in houses and businesses.

These creepy crawlers are cosmopolitan species found in America, Australia, Africa, Eurasia and different parts of the Pacific. They love to nestle moist areas where temperature is favourable, relatively humid between 75% and 95%. In urban areas specifically households, they are generally found in attics, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, older books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Aside from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it because of the glue. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents are considered food for those pests.

These house bugs are often found in dark and sheltered regions in the household. Otherwise, they are likely undisturbed in bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded locations.

As above, they may not impose any harm, however they are considered a nuisance and can be destructive to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are parasitic insects and they move around so fast. Their main diet involves starch-rich matter and those that contain paste. Most people can easily identify their existence since they leave stains on clothes and wardrobes.

As above, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold locations. So, it is better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen closets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are fresh buildings, large numbers may be found where masonry is still damp.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to 2 months to hatch. Actually, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 stages and lasts over half an hour. The female silverfish is effective at putting out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will flourish to grow into adults between 3 months to 3 decades.

On the other hand, they are food for other insects like earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders
