Scientific name: lepisma saccharina

Silverfish, also called fishmoths, are small insects with no wings. They grow to be about an inch long. Silverfish like to live in dark, sometimes damp places, like kitchen cupboards, bathrooms, and wardrobes. They will eat glue, books and book bindings, paper, photos, sugar, hair, and dandruff.
