What are Silverfish?

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

Homeowners often transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. When brought inside the house, cardboard boxes and plastic containers recently stored in infested areas can make it possible for 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 creepy crawlers are cosmopolitan species found in America, Australia, Africa, Eurasia and other sections of the Pacific. They love to nestle moist areas where temperature is favourable, relatively humid between 75% and 95%. In urban areas specifically families, they are commonly found in attics, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, old books, and showers.

Silverfish in Australian Households

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Aside from that, they feed on carpeting, clothing, coffee, 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 has polysaccharide contents are considered food for those pests.

These house insects are often found in dark and sheltered regions in the home. If not, they are likely undisturbed in bookshelves, cabinets, cabinets and secluded locations.

Spotting an Infestation

Silverfish are classified as nocturnal pests and they go around so quickly. Since they voraciously consume on starch-rich items and paste, most people can easily identify their existence because they leave stains on clothes and wardrobes.

As above, silverfish loves moist, dark and cold areas. So, it is better to inspect the bathroomkitchen closets, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are fresh buildings, large numbers may be found in which masonry remains damp.

It takes 2 weeks to 2 months for silverfish eggs to hatch. Actually, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 phases that last over half an hour. The female silverfish is effective at putting out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to grow into adults between 3 months to 3 years.

On the other hand, they’re food for other insects like earwigs, home 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.
