Silverfish are primitive, wingless insects named for their silvery, fish-like movement. They are among the few insects that continue moulting throughout their adult life, and can live for several years — long enough to do quiet, cumulative damage to books, documents and stored fabric before most households even notice them.
Egg hatch
2–8 weeks, depending on humidity and temperature
Nymph to adult
3–24 months — slow, and highly humidity-dependent
Adult lifespan
2–8 years, unusually long for an insect

Chemical control
Silverfish damage is slow and easy to miss until a favourite book or heirloom document already has holes in it. Because humidity control does most of the prevention work, our protocol pairs cupboard-safe residual treatment with practical dehumidification advice for lasting protection.
