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 are referring to silverfish.

Homeowners often transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. When brought inside the house, cardboard boxes and plastic containers recently stored in infested areas can make it possible for the pests to spread. The pests will enter houses through foundation cracks, torn screens, or gaps around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish indoors.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Both adults and larvae love to feed on carpet, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these 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 need a relative humidity between 75% and 95%. In urban areas, they can be located in basements and attics.

As aforementioned, they may not inflict any injury, but they are considered a nuisance and may be unfavourable to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are classified as nocturnal pests and they move around so quickly. Since they voraciously consume on starch-rich items and paste, most people can easily identify their existence because they leave stains on clothing and wardrobes.

As above, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold areas. So, it is better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen closets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are fresh buildings, large numbers may be found in which masonry remains damp.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to 2 months to hatch. In fact, the male and female carryout an interesting ritual that involves 3 phases and might last over half an hour. The female silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. Finally, when the eggs hatch, the nymphs will work on its way to become adults following three months to three years.

Though they are accounted for family damages, silverfish holds no holds any document in transmitting diseases. On The alternative hand, they are food for different insects such as earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders.
