They are little, wingless insects, with the fish-like appearance and give off a feeling of being whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there has been no known proof that they cause disorders or inflict poison, however, then they are seen as a pest in homes as well as organisations.

Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found where 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.
