What are Silverfish?

Have you pulled a reserve off the rack or even opened an old wooden box and just scream when these white unpleasant creatures dart off? We are referring to silverfish.

They are not just crawlers but can dart off high as well without our naked eyes detecting. Aside from boxes and bookshelves, they are also located in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Moreover, silverfish are especially attracted to paper and moist clothing.

Silverfish do not transmit diseases, but the pests may trigger allergies in some people and further damage properties. Their existence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish feed on anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. They are also known to feed on carpet, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because of the glue. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these insects.

Silverfish are common pest species and are abundant in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and other parts of the Pacific. They occupy moist areas with relative humidity between 75 percent and 95%.

As previously mentioned, they may not cause massive damage, however, they are viewed as an annoyance and can deem damage to any products.

Spotting an Infestation

These creepy crawlers are known to be nocturnal and they move around so fast. Since they feed on starches and paste, most men and women become aware that if they see holes and yellowish stains on their clothing or wardrobes, they know that silverfish is the offender .

As above, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold locations. They are found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, whenever there are new buildings, large amounts could 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.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to two months to hatch. Actually, the male and female carryout an interesting ritual that involves 3 phases and might last over half an hour. The female silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. Eventually, when the eggs hatch, the nymphs will operate on its way to become adults following three months to three years.

Though they are responsible for household damages, silverfish holds no record to be transmitting diseases. On the other hand, they’re food for other insects such as earwigs, house centipedes, and spiders.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!
