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.

They are not just crawlers but can dart off high as well with our naked eyes noticing. Aside from boxes and bookshelves, they are also found in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Moreover, silverfish are especially drawn to paper and damp clothing.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that includes polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are available in book bindings. Apart from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, java, 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 which has polysaccharide contents are considered meals 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.

These domestic creepy crawlers are often found lurking in darkened and dark areas in the household. If not, they are likely hiding in between the nooks of the bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded places. They may not impose any harm, and nothing has ever been recorded, however, they are considered a nuisance and may be destructive to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

These creepy crawlers are known to be nocturnal and they move around so quickly. Since they feed on starches and paste, most people become aware that should they see holes and yellowish stains on their clothing or wardrobes, they understand that silverfish is the offender .

As above, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold areas. So, it’s better to inspect the bathroomkitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found where masonry remains damp.

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

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, house centipedes, and spiders.
