What are Silverfish?

Have you ever wondered that when you start a book you found a tiny 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 destructive pests. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, especially sugars and starches. They have voracious feeding habits, oftentimes ruining papers, clothing and wallpaper.

Silverfish have been present for a number of years, coexisting with historical animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking round the ground for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, with the fish-like appearance and give off a feeling of becoming whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there has been no known proof that they cause illnesses or inflict poison, however, then they are seen as a pest in homes and organisations.

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

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish absorbs anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Aside from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception too because these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents are considered food for those 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 need a relative humidity between 75% and 95%. In urban areas, they can be found in basements and attics.

These domestic creepy crawlers are often found lurking in dark and sheltered areas in the home. Otherwise, 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 so quickly. Since they feed on starches and paste, most men and women become aware that if they see holes and yellow stains on their clothing or wardrobes, they know that silverfish is the offender .

They are found hiding in dark and moist nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cabinets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers may be found in which masonry is still moist. During a famine, a silverfish may even attack leatherware and synthetic materials. Silverfish can live for a year or more without eating.

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 may last over 30 minutes. The feminine silverfish lay around 60 eggs and deposited in small crevices. Finally, while the eggs hatch, the nymphs will work on its way to be adults after 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’re food for other insects such as earwigs, house centipedes, and spiders.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. Local Pest Control is a reliable and effective company who I won’t hesitate to call again! Highly recommend.

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.
