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 papers, clothing and background. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, particularly sugars and starches. Cellulose, shampoos, paste in books, linen, silk and dead insects may be food sources. These white creepy creatures can dart off easily. They are mostly found in basements, attics, kitchens and baths. Furthermore, silverfish are especially attracted to paper and damp clothing.

They are not just crawlers but can dart off high as well without our naked eyes detecting. Apart from boxes and bookshelves, they are also found in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Furthermore, silverfish are especially drawn to paper and damp clothing.

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 strain, and over time spread everywhere. These pests will enter homes through base cracks, torn screens, or gaps around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish indoors. They are not known to spread illnesses but they are capable of triggering allergic reactions in some people and further damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of 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 carpet, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it due to the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these pests.

Silverfish are common insect 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 previously mentioned, they may not cause massive damage, however, they are viewed as a hassle and can deem damage to any items.

Spotting an Infestation

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

As aforementioned, silverfish loves damp, 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 two months to hatch. Actually, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 stages and lasts over half an hour. The feminine 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 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, home centipedes, and spiders.

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. Local Pest Control is a reliable and effective company who I won’t hesitate to call again! Highly recommend.

I have been using this business for pest control for number of years after having a number of other pest control companies failing to ensure unwanted inserts and spiders were not around our place. Local Pest Control seem to have the environmental toxic free products and satisfy the pest problem and it seems to last the year. Highly recommend this business would not consider another pest business. Valued customer.

Real Estate Property Manager. Prior to the introduction I had used other Companys who did not offer the same professional service I attained from Local Pest Control. No job was too small or too big and they were always contactable and were able to attend to the job quickly. The quality of their service and the work performed is second to none. I have used the Company for my own family needs as well and I will never again use another Company for my Pest Control needs.
