What are Silverfish?

Have you pulled a reserve 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.

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 appearance and appear to be whitish-gray in colour. They’re harmless and there have been no known evidence that they cause diseases or inject poison but then they are considered pests in homes 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 commonly found in attics, bathrooms, bathrooms, sinks, kitchens, older books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Apart from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception too because these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents are considered food for those pests.

These neighbourhood dreadful creatures regularly nestled in dim and secure places in the household. Otherwise, they are likely undisturbed in publication racks, organizers, storage rooms and segregated spots.

They nestle in dark and sheltered areas in the household. If not, they are probably undiscovered in bookshelves, cupboards, closets and secluded places. They may not inflict any harm but they are considered a nuisance and may be destructive to any possessions.

Spotting an Infestation

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

As aforementioned, silverfish loves moist, 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 could be found in which masonry is still damp.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to 2 months to hatch. Actually, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 phases and lasts over half an hour. The female silverfish is effective at putting out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will flourish to grow into adults between 3 months to 3 decades.

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