What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or may be opened an old wooden container only to get surprised while those white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we’re talking about silverfish.

Silverfish have been existing for a number of years, coexisting with ancient animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking around the earth for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like appearance and give off a feeling of being whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there’s been no known evidence that they cause disorders or inflict poison, however, they are viewed as a pest in homes as well as organisations.

Their presence is sometimes undetected and homeowners often transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. Once inside, they find a secure dark and damp place where they can nestle and strain, and over time spread everywhere. These pests will enter houses through base cracks, torn screens, or openings around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish indoors. They are not known to spread illnesses but they are capable of triggering allergic reactions in some people and further damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish devours whatever comprises polysaccharides, for instance, starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are used in publication ties. Besides that, they feed on a floor covering, apparel, espresso, dandruff, stick, hair, a few paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well as these pests feed on it because of the paste. By and large, anything that’s polysaccharide substance is viewed as sustenance for these insects.

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

As previously mentioned, they may not cause massive damage, however, they are seen as a hassle and can deem damage to any items.

Spotting an Infestation

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

As aforementioned, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold locations. They are found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when 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.

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

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