Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or may be opened an old wooden container simply to get amased while these white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we are talking about silverfish.
Silverfish have been on the ground thousands and thousands of years previously before dinosaurs. Meaning, insects like them have lived for 400 million years! They are small wingless bugs, with the fish-like appearance and are whitish-grey in colour. They are harmless and there had been no acknowledged proof that they cause diseases or introduce poison, however, they are considered pests in homes and businesses.
These creepy crawlers are cosmopolitan species found in America, Australia, Africa, Eurasia and different parts of the Pacific. They love to nestle moist areas where temperature is favourable, relatively humid between 75% and 95%. In urban areas specifically households, they are commonly found in attics, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, old books, and showers.
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 are not an exception as well because of the glue. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents is considered food for these pests.
These house insects are often found in dark and sheltered regions in the home. If not, they are likely undisturbed in bookshelves, cupboards, closets and secluded locations.
As above, they may not inflict any harm, but they are considered a nuisance and may be unfavourable to any belongings.
Silverfish are categorised as nocturnal pests and they go around so quickly. Since they voraciously consume on starch-rich items and glue, most people can easily identify their existence since they leave stains on clothing and wardrobes.
As above, silverfish loves damp, dark and cold areas. They are found hiding in the nooks of the bathroom, kitchen cupboards, under the sink, attics and basements. Usually, when there are new buildings, large numbers could 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.
It takes two weeks to two months for silverfish eggs to hatch. Actually, the adult female and male carryout an interesting mating ritual that involves 3 phases that last over 30 minutes. The female silverfish is capable of laying out 60 eggs and deposited in little crevices. When these eggs hatch, the nymphs will thrive to develop into adults between 3 weeks to 3 decades.
Though they are responsible for household damages, silverfish holds no record to be transmitting diseases. On the other hand, they are food for other insects like earwigs, home centipedes, and spiders.
Cleaning the house and surrounding regions do not completely eradicate silverfish. These pests are quite difficult to eliminate that it requires assistance from pest management professionals. This is because no generic insecticides or pesticides can poison the silverfish brooding.
Here are some reasons why using a professional silverfish treatment is a good initiative:
That being said, they can trigger an allergic reaction in some people. Professionals have their own equipment. Silverfish can be tough to completely control this is especially true in homes which have wooden shingles on the roof.
