What are Silverfish?

Have you ever wondered that when you start a book you found a tiny and white creature nestled in between the pages? That is a silverfish. Commonly found in old boxes, drawers and bookshelves, these creatures are known to be destructive pests. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, especially sugars and starches. They have voracious feeding habits, oftentimes ruining papers, clothing and wallpaper.

Silverfish have been present for a number of years, coexisting with ancient animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking around the ground for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like appearance and give off an impression of becoming whitish-grey in color. They are harmless and there’s been no known proof that they cause disorders or inflict poison, however, they are seen as a pest in homes as well as organisations.

Silverfish don’t transmit diseases, but the pests can trigger allergies in some people and additional damage possessions. Their existence occasionally attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Both adults and larvae like to 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 has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these pests.

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

These national creepy crawlers are often found lurking in darkened and dark areas in the household. Otherwise, they are likely hiding in between the nooks of the bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded places. They may not impose any injury, and nothing has ever been recorded, however, they are considered a nuisance and may be destructive 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 presence because they leave stains on clothes and wardrobes.

They are found hiding in dark and moist nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found where 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 reality, the female and male carry out an exciting ritual that involves three phases and may last over half an hour. The feminine silverfish lay approximately 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. Finally, while the eggs hatch, the nymphs will work on its way to be adults following three months to three decades.

Though they are responsible for household damages, silverfish holds no record in transmitting diseases. On the other hand, they’re food for other insects like earwigs, house centipedes, and spiders.
