Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or even opened an old wooden box just to shout when these white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we’re talking about silverfish.
Homeowners often transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. When brought inside the house, cardboard boxes and plastic containers recently stored in infested areas can allow the pests to spread. The pests will enter houses through foundation cracks, torn screens, or openings around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish indoors.
Silverfish do not transmit diseases, but the pests can trigger allergies in some people and further damage properties. Their existence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to their strange appearance.
Silverfish feed on anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. They are also known to feed on carpeting, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers aren’t an exception as well because of the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is known as food for these pests.
Silverfish are common pest species and are abundant in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and other parts of the Pacific. They inhabit moist areas with relative humidity between 75 percent and 95%.
As aforementioned, they may not inflict any injury, but they are considered a nuisance and may be unfavourable to any belongings.
Silverfish are classified as nocturnal pests and they go around so quickly. Since they voraciously consume on starch-rich items and glue, most people can easily identify their existence since they leave stains on clothes and wardrobes.
As aforementioned, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold locations. They are found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found in which masonry is still damp. During a famine, a silverfish may even attack leatherware and synthetic fabrics. Silverfish can live for a year or more without eating.
It takes 2 weeks to 2 months for silverfish eggs to hatch. In fact, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual which involves 3 stages that last over 30 minutes. The female silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to develop into adults between 3 weeks to 3 decades.
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, home centipedes, and insects.
Cleaning the house does not necessarily guarantee to lessen the amount of silverfish. Therefore, most homeowners seek advice to professional pest management services to implement a customised treatment focused on silverfish eradication.
