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

These creepy crawlers are cosmopolitan species found in America, Australia, Africa, Eurasia and different parts of the Pacific. They love to nestle moist areas where temperature is favourable, relatively humid between 75% and 95%. In urban areas specifically families, they are commonly found in attics, bathrooms, bathrooms, sinks, kitchens, older books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Apart from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it because of the glue. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents are considered food for those pests.

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

They nestle in dark and sheltered areas in the household. Otherwise, they are probably undiscovered in bookshelves, cupboards, closets and secluded places. They may not inflict any harm but they are considered a nuisance and can be destructive to any possessions.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are categorised as nocturnal pests and they go around so fast. Since they voraciously consume on starch-rich items and glue, most people can easily identify their existence because they leave stains on clothing and wardrobes.

As aforementioned, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold locations. They are found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when 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. In fact, the female and male carry out an exciting ritual that involves three phases and might last over half an hour. The female silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. Eventually, while the eggs hatch, the nymphs will work on its way to be adults following three months to three years.

Though they’re accounted for family damages, silverfish holds no holds any record in transmitting diseases. On The alternative hand, they’re food for different insects such as earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders.
