| So... What's a Silverfish? 
Silverfish are gray to silver in color and measure up to 3/4" in length. These soft-bodied insects are flat and long in appearance. They do not have wings, so they cannot fly, but they are still very fast as they dart about searching for food or hiding places. Reproduction Patterns of Silverfish Female silverfish lay eggs individually or in small groups, depositing them in small cracks. Two to three weeks later, the eggs hatch and the young nymphs, who somewhat resemble the adults, are ready to feed. In another four to six weeks the young will develop into adults, molting throughout the process and continually molting throughout adulthood. They may live up to eight years of age. Silverfish's Habitat Although silverfish usually make their home outdoors under rocks, bird nests, and other hidden spots, they also are readily found in homes. 
They prefer places with high moisture, such as basements, bathrooms, laundry rooms and kitchens. Homeowners may find them in their tubs and sinks where they have climbed into in search of food but have become trapped.
