What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or may be opened an old wooden container only to get surprised while those white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we’re talking about silverfish.

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 appearance and are whitish-grey in colour. They are harmless and there had been no acknowledged proof that they cause diseases or introduce poison, however, they may be considered pests in homes and businesses.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish devours whatever comprises polysaccharides, as an example, starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are used in publication 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 glue. By and large, anything that has polysaccharide substance is seen as sustenance for these insects.

These local dreadful creatures regularly nestled in dim and secure places in the household. If not, they are likely undisturbed in publication racks, organizers, storage rooms and segregated spots.

These national creepy crawlers are often found lurking in dark and sheltered areas in the household. Otherwise, they are likely hiding in between the nooks of the bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded places. They may not impose any injury, and nothing has ever been recorded, however, they are regarded as a nuisance and can be destructive to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

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

As above, silverfish enjoys moist, dark and cold areas. So, it is better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, underneath the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new infrastructures, massive numbers may be discovered in which masonry remains damp.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to 2 months to hatch. In fact, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual which involves 3 stages and lasts over 30 minutes. The female silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will flourish to develop into adults between 3 weeks to 3 decades.

On the other hand, they’re food for other insects such as earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders
