What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or even opened an old wooden box just to shout when these white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we’re talking about silverfish.

Silverfish have been existing for a number of years, coexisting with historical animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking around the earth for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like appearance and give off an impression of becoming whitish-grey in color. They are harmless and there has been no known evidence that they cause illnesses or inflict poison, however, then they are viewed as a pest in homes and organisations.

Silverfish don’t transmit diseases, but the pests may trigger allergies in some people and additional damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to 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. Apart from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well as these creatures feed on it because of the glue. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents are 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 need a relative humidity between 75% and 95%. In urban areas, they can be located in basements and attics.

As above, they may not inflict any harm, but they are considered a nuisance and can be unfavourable to any belongings.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are known to be nocturnal and they move around so quickly. Since they feed on starches and glue, most people become mindful that should they see openings and yellowish stains in their attire or closets, they understand that silverfish is the offender.

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

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to 2 months to hatch. In fact, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual which involves 3 stages and lasts over 30 minutes. The feminine silverfish is effective at putting out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will flourish to grow into adults between 3 weeks to 3 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 such as earwigs, house centipedes, and spiders.

Controlling Silverfish Brooding

Cleaning the house does not necessarily guarantee to lessen the amount of silverfish. Therefore, most homeowners seek advice to professional pest management services to implement a customised treatment focused on silverfish eradication.

Here are some reasons why having a professional silverfish treatment is a good initiative:

Silverfish can be tough to completely control this is especially true in homes which have wooden shingles on the roof.

I have been using this business for pest control for number of years after having a number of other pest control companies failing to ensure unwanted inserts and spiders were not around our place. Local Pest Control seem to have the environmental toxic free products and satisfy the pest problem and it seems to last the year. Highly recommend this business would not consider another pest business. Valued customer.

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!
