What are Silverfish?

Silverfish are pest that are generally found in dwelling in drawers or boxes in garages and sheds. Silverfish are known for their destructive feeding habits, oftentimes ruining papers, clothing and background. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, especially sugars and starches. Cellulose, shampoos, glue in books, linen, silk and dead insects might be food sources. These white creepy creatures can dart off easily. They are mostly found in basements, attics, kitchens and baths. Furthermore, silverfish are especially attracted to paper and moist clothing.

They are not just crawlers but can dart off high as well without our naked eyes noticing. Aside from boxes and bookshelves, they’re 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 parts 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, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, older books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Aside from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, 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 these pests.

These neighbourhood 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.

They nestle in dark and sheltered areas in the household. Otherwise, they are likely undisturbed in bookshelves, cupboards, closets and gated areas. They may not inflict any harm but they are considered a nuisance and can be destructive to any possessions.

Spotting an Infestation

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

They are found hiding in dark and damp nooks of the toilet, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found in which masonry is still moist. During a famine, a silverfish may even attack leatherware and synthetic fabrics. Silverfish can live for a year or more without eating.

It takes 2 weeks to two months for silverfish eggs to hatch. Actually, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual which involves 3 stages that last over 30 minutes. The female silverfish is effective at putting out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to grow into adults between 3 weeks to 3 decades.

Though they’re accounted for household damages, silverfish holds no holds any document in transmitting diseases. On The alternative hand, they’re food for different insects such as earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders.
