What are Silverfish?

Silverfish are pest that are commonly found in dwelling in drawers or boxes in sheds and garages. Silverfish are known for their destructive feeding habits, oftentimes ruining newspapers, clothing and wallpaper. 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 with our naked eyes noticing. Apart from boxes and bookshelves, they are also located in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Moreover, silverfish are especially attracted 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 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 due to 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 carpeting, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers aren’t an exception as well because of the glue. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents is known as food for these pests.

These house insects are often found in dark and sheltered regions in the home. Otherwise, they are likely undisturbed in bookshelves, cupboards, closets and secluded locations.

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

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are proven to be nocturnal and they move around so fast. Since they feed on starches and paste, most people become mindful that should they see openings and yellowish stains in their attire or cupboards, they understand that silverfish is the culprit.

As above, silverfish likes moist, dark and cold areas. So, it’s better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, underneath the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new infrastructures, enormous numbers may be found in which masonry remains damp.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to two months to hatch. Actually, the female and male carryout an interesting ritual which involves 3 phases and may last over 30 minutes. The female silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. Finally, when the eggs hatch, the nymphs will operate on its way to become adults after three months to three years.

Though they are responsible for household damages, silverfish holds no record in transmitting diseases. On the other hand, they are food for other insects such as earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders.
