They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like appearance and give off an impression of being whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there’s been no known proof that they cause disorders or inflict poison, however, 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 further damage possessions. Their existence occasionally attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.

Silverfish consumes anything that contains polysaccharides, like starches and dextrins in adhesives, which are found in book bindings. Both adults and larvae love to feed on carpet, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photographs, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it due to the paste. Overall, anything that’s polysaccharide contents is regarded as food for these insects.

Silverfish are common pest species and are abundant in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and other parts of the Pacific. They occupy moist areas with relative humidity between 75 percent and 95%.
