As aforementioned, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold areas. They’re found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, whenever there are new buildings, large numbers may 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.

It takes two weeks to 2 months for silverfish eggs to hatch. In fact, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 stages that last over 30 minutes. The female silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will flourish to develop into adults between 3 months to 3 decades.
