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

Silverfish don’t transmit diseases, but the pests may trigger allergies in some people and further damage properties. Their existence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish feed on anything that contains polysaccharides, such as 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 are not an exception as well because of the glue. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these insects.

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

Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found in which masonry is still moist. During a famine, a silverfish may even attack leatherware and synthetic materials. 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 may last over half an hour. The female silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. Eventually, while the eggs hatch, the nymphs will operate on its way to be adults after three months to three decades.
