What are Silverfish?

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

Silverfish has been on the planet millions of years ago before dinosaurs. Meaning, bugs like them have survived 400 million years! They are small wingless insects, with fish-like look and appear to be whitish-gray in colour. They are harmless and there have been no known evidence that they cause diseases or inject poison but then they are considered pests in homes and businesses.

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 possessions. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that includes polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are available in book bindings. Aside from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, a few paints, paper, pictures, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception too due to the fact that these creatures feed on it due to the paste. Overall, anything which has polysaccharide contents are considered foods for those pests.

These house bugs are often found in dark and sheltered regions in the household. If not, they are likely undisturbed in bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded locations.

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