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 home, 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 unpleasant crawlers are globally recognized and are found in America, Australia, Africa, Eurasia and different portions of the Pacific. They settle in damp areas where the temperature is suitable for them, generally humid and about 75% and 95 percent in temperature. In Urban areas particularly families, they are usually found in storage rooms, bathrooms, bathrooms, sinks, kitchens, old books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish feed on anything that contains polysaccharides, such as 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, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers aren’t an exception as well because of the glue. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents is considered food for these pests.

Silverfish are cosmopolitan species, meaning to say, they are common and are found in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and other parts of the Pacific. They live in moist areas that require a relative humidity between 75% and 95%. In urban areas, they can be located in basements and attics.

As above, they may not impose any harm, however they are considered a nuisance and can be harmful to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

These creepy crawlers are known to be nocturnal and they move around so quickly. Since they feed on starches and paste, most men and women become aware that should they see holes and yellow stains on their clothes or wardrobes, they know that silverfish is the culprit.

As aforementioned, silverfish likes moist, dark and cold locations. So, it’s better to inspect the bathroom, kitchen closets, underneath the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new infrastructures, enormous numbers might be found in which masonry remains damp.

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

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