What are Silverfish?

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

They are not just crawlers but can dart off high as well without our naked eyes detecting. Apart from boxes and bookshelves, they’re also found in basements, attics, kitchens and bathrooms. Furthermore, silverfish are especially attracted to paper and moist clothing.

Silverfish do not transmit diseases, but the pests may trigger allergies in some people and additional damage possessions. Their existence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Both adults and larvae love to feed on carpet, 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 due to the paste. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents is considered food for these pests.

Silverfish are common insect 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 percent and 95%.

These domestic creepy crawlers are often found lurking in dark and sheltered areas in the household. If not, they are likely hiding in between the nooks of the bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded places. They may not inflict any harm, and nothing has ever been recorded, however, they are considered a nuisance and may be harmful to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

These creepy crawlers are known to be nocturnal and they move around fast. Since they feed on starches and paste, most individuals will be aware of their presence when they see holes and yellow stains on their clothes or wardrobes. They understand that silverfish is present.

As aforementioned, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold locations. They’re found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large amounts may be found in which masonry is still damp. During a famine, a silverfish may even attack leatherware and synthetic fabrics. Silverfish can live for a year or more without eating.

Silverfish eggs generally take within 14 Days to two months to incubate. Indeed, the male and female carry out a fascinating custom that includes 3 phases and may last over half an hour. The female silverfish lay about 60 eggs and stored in small crevices. At the end, once the eggs hatch, the nymphs will cope on its way to move toward becoming adults after after three months to three years.

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