What are Silverfish?

Silverfish are pest that are generally found in dwelling in boxes or drawers in sheds and garages. Silverfish are known for their destructive feeding habits, oftentimes ruining newspapers, clothing and wallpaper. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, particularly sugars and starches. Cellulose, shampoos, glue in books, linen, silk and dead insects might be food sources. These white creepy creatures can dart off easily. They are mostly found in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Furthermore, silverfish are especially attracted to paper and moist clothing.

Silverfish have been existing for a number of years, coexisting with ancient animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking around the ground for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like look and give off a feeling of being whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there’s been no known evidence that they cause illnesses or inflict poison, however, then they are viewed as a pest in homes and organisations.

Their presence is sometimes undetected and homeowners frequently transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. Once inside, they find a safe dark and damp place where they can nestle and breed, and over time spread anywhere. These pests will enter houses through foundation cracks, torn screens, or gaps around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish inside. They are not known to spread illnesses but they are capable of triggering allergic reactions in certain people and further damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Both adults and larvae like to feed on carpeting, clothing, java, 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 paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these pests.

These national creepy crawlers are often found in darkened and dark areas in the home. If not, they are likely undisturbed in book shelves, cupboards, closets and secluded places.

These national creepy crawlers are often found lurking in darkened and dark areas in the home. Otherwise, they are likely hiding in between the nooks of the bookshelves, cupboards, closets and secluded places. They may not impose any harm, and nothing has ever been recorded, however, they are considered a nuisance and may be harmful to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are known to be nocturnal and they move around so quickly. Since they feed on starches and glue, most people become mindful that should they see openings and yellowish stains in their attire or cupboards, they know that silverfish is the culprit.

As previously mentioned, silverfish enjoys moist, cold and dark areas. Thus, it is smarter to check the washroom, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, storage rooms and basements. Typically, when there are new institutions, vast numbers might be found in which masonry is as yet moist?

It takes two weeks to 2 months for silverfish eggs to hatch. Actually, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 stages that last over 30 minutes. The feminine silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to develop into adults between 3 months to 3 years.

Regardless of the fact that they are in charge of household damages, silverfish holds no record to transmit illnesses. Then again, they are sustenance for different insects like earwigs, house centipedes, and insects.
