What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or may be opened an old wooden container only to get amased while those white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we are talking about silverfish.

Silverfish have been present for a number of years, coexisting with ancient animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking round the earth for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like look 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, they are seen as a pest in homes as well as organisations.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that includes polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which can be found in book bindings. Aside from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, a few paints, paper, images, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception too 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.

These neighbourhood dreadful creatures regularly nestled in dim and safe places in the household. If not, they are likely undisturbed in book racks, organizers, storage rooms and segregated spots.

As aforementioned, they may not impose any harm, however they’re considered a nuisance and can be destructive to any belongings.

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 closets, they understand that silverfish is the offender.

As above, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold locations. They’re found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, whenever there are new buildings, large numbers 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 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 small crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will flourish to grow into adults between 3 weeks to 3 decades.

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, house centipedes, and spiders.
