What are Silverfish?

They are not just crawlers but can dart off high as well with our naked eyes detecting. Apart from boxes and bookshelves, they are also located in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Moreover, silverfish are especially drawn to paper and moist clothing.

These creepy crawlers are cosmopolitan species found in America, Australia, Africa, Eurasia and different sections of the Pacific. They love to nestle moist areas where temperature is favourable, relatively humid between 75% and 95%. In urban areas specifically families, they are commonly found in attics, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, old books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes whatever that includes polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are available in book bindings. Apart from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, a few paints, paper, pictures, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well due to the fact that these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything which has polysaccharide contents are considered foods for those pests.

These domestic creepy crawlers are often found in darkened and dark areas in the home. Otherwise, they are likely undisturbed in book shelves, cupboards, closets and secluded places.

They nestle in dark and sheltered areas in the household. Otherwise, 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

Silverfish are parasitic insects and they move around so quickly. Their main diet entails starch-rich matter and those that contain paste. Most people can easily identify their presence since they leave stains on clothing and wardrobes.

They are found hiding in dark and damp 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.

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 phases 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.

On the other hand, they are food for other insects like earwigs, house centipedes, and spiders
