What are Silverfish?

Have you pulled a book off the rack or even opened an old wooden box and shout when these white unpleasant creatures dart off? We are referring to silverfish.

Silverfish has been on the planet millions of years ago before dinosaurs. Meaning, bugs like them have lived 400 million years! They are small wingless insects, with fish-like appearance and appear to be whitish-gray in color. They are benign and there have been no known evidence that they cause diseases or inject poison but then they’re considered pests in homes and businesses.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Both adults and larvae like to feed on carpeting, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is regarded as food for these pests.

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

As aforementioned, they may not inflict any injury, but they are regarded as a nuisance and can be unfavourable to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are categorised as nocturnal pests and they go 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 clothing and wardrobes.

As above, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold areas. So, it is better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen closets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers could be found in which masonry remains damp.

It takes two weeks to 2 months for silverfish eggs to hatch. In fact, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual which involves 3 stages that last over half an hour. The female silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to grow into adults between 3 months to 3 years.

In spite of the fact that they are in charge of household damages, silverfish holds no record to transmit illnesses. Then again, they are sustenance for different insects like earwigs, home centipedes, and insects.
