Explore the biology and survival strategies of the silverfish, one of the oldest insect lineages still living in human environments today.
The silverfish (Lepisma saccharinum) is a wingless, nocturnal insect known for its metallic appearance and remarkable longevity. Capable of surviving up to 8 years, silverfish thrive in dark, humid indoor spaces and feed on cellulose-rich materials such as paper, fabrics, and starches. This video examines their unique molting behavior, fish-like movement, dietary adaptations, and why these ancient insects remain so difficult to eliminate from modern homes.
