Aside from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception as well because these creatures feed on it because of the glue. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents are considered food for these pests.

Silverfish eggs usually take within two weeks to two months to hatch. In fact, the adult male and female carryout an interesting mating ritual which involves 3 phases and lasts over 30 minutes.
