What are Silverfish?

Have you ever wondered that when you open a book you found a little and white monster nestled in between the pages? That is a silverfish. Commonly found in old boxes, drawers and bookshelves, these animals are known to be harmful pests. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, especially sugars and starches. They have voracious feeding habits, oftentimes ruining papers, clothes and wallpaper.

Silverfish have been on the earth thousands and thousands of years in the past before dinosaurs. Meaning, insects like them have lived for 400 million years! They are small wingless bugs, with the fish-like look and are whitish-grey in colour. They are benign and there had been no recognised proof that they cause diseases or introduce toxin, however, they are considered pests in houses and businesses.

Their presence is sometimes undetected and homeowners frequently transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. Once inside, they find a safe dark and damp place where they can nestle and breed, and over time spread everywhere. These pests will enter homes through foundation cracks, torn screens, or openings 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 certain people and further damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish feed on anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. They are also known to feed on carpeting, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers aren’t an exception as well due to the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents is considered food for these insects.

These domestic creepy crawlers are often located in dark and sheltered areas in the household. If not, they are likely undisturbed in book shelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded places.

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

As previously mentioned, silverfish adores moist, cold and dark areas. Thus, it is more economical to assess the washroom, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, storage rooms and rooms. Typically, when there are new establishments, vast numbers might be found in which masonry is as moist?

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to two months to hatch. In reality, the female and male carry out an exciting ritual that involves three phases and might last over 30 minutes. The feminine silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. Finally, while the eggs hatch, the nymphs will work on its way to be adults following three months to three decades.

Though they’re accounted for family 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.

He even took the time to explain different aspects of his job and the various insects and how he gets rid of them. Absolute champion. Hoping this will be the start of a long relationship with Andrew and his Local Pest Control team. Cheers.

Extremely happy with the services provided, we had a very knowledgeable technician Sean came to attend to the possum issue in our townhouse, Sean found the openings where the possums came in on the roof right away and patched them up. When the previous pest control company failed to do. But being a two level building with a separated garage roof, it was very difficult to trap the possums still inside, but Andrew the boss and Sean kept trying and finally got the problem all solved. Friendly to talk to and easy to work with so Highly recommended.
