What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or even opened an old wooden box just to shout when these white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we’re talking about silverfish.

Silverfish have been on the ground thousands and thousands of years in the past before dinosaurs. Meaning, insects like them have lived for 400 million years! They are small wingless bugs, with the fish-like look and are whitish-grey in colour. They are benign and there had been no acknowledged proof that they cause diseases or introduce toxin, however, they are considered pests in houses and businesses.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes whatever that includes polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are available in book bindings. Apart from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, a few paints, paper, images, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because of the fact that these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents are considered foods for those pests.

Silverfish are cosmopolitan species, meaning to say, they are common and are found in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and other parts of the Pacific. They live in moist areas that require a relative humidity between 75% and 95%. In urban areas, they can be located in basements and attics.

As previously mentioned, they may not cause massive damage, however, they are seen as a hassle and can deem damage to any products.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to two months to hatch. Actually, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 stages and lasts over half an hour. The feminine silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to develop into adults between 3 weeks to 3 decades.

On the other hand, they are food for other insects such as earwigs, house centipedes, and spiders
