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.

Homeowners often transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. When brought inside the house, cardboard boxes and plastic containers recently stored in infested areas can allow the pests to spread. The pests will enter houses through foundation cracks, torn screens, or gaps around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish indoors.

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 families, they are generally found in attics, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, old books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish devours whatever contains polysaccharides, for example, starches and dextrins in adhesives, which can be used in book ties. Besides that, they feed on a floor covering, apparel, espresso, dandruff, stay, hair, a few paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well as these pests feed on it because of the paste. By and large, anything that has polysaccharide substance is viewed as sustenance for these insects.

Silverfish are common pest species and are abundant in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and other parts of the Pacific. They inhabit moist areas with relative humidity between 75% and 95%.

As aforementioned, they may not impose any harm, however they’re considered a nuisance and can be harmful to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are known to be nocturnal and they move around so fast. Since they feed on starches and paste, most people become mindful that if they see openings and yellowish stains in their attire or cupboards, they understand that silverfish is the culprit.

As aforementioned, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold areas. So, it is better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are fresh buildings, large numbers may be found where masonry is still damp.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to two months to hatch. Actually, the female and male carryout an interesting ritual that involves 3 phases and might last over half an hour. The female silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. Eventually, when the eggs hatch, the nymphs will work on its way to become adults following three months to three decades.

Though they are responsible for household damages, silverfish holds no record to be transmitting diseases. On the other hand, they are food for other insects like earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders.
