These insects belong to a category of immutable insects that change in size and retain the same characteristics after hatching. Silverfish have no wings but do have 2-3 projections (antennas) at the bottom of their abdominal area.

The perfect insects have the shape of a fish, a length of 10-12mm and a silver-grey color. Silverfish need moist and warm conditions in order to survive, which is why they are mainly found under rocks, rotten wood and ground cracks.

Silverfish Infestation Management

Where can Silverfish be found?

In houses, they are often found in bathrooms and kitchens, under carpets, on bookcases, behind picture frames and in cupboards where we store our clothes.

They feed on food leftovers and they prefer starch food. Their evolution allows them to consume cellulose which enables them to cause big damage in book collections and even damage valuable objects like art paintings.
