Silverfish in Oklahoma

Silverfish are small, wingless insects that thrive in dark, humid places like bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and attics. They’re easily identified by their silvery-gray bodies and fast, wriggling movement. Though not harmful to humans, silverfish are destructive—feeding on paper, books, wallpaper glue, and clothing.

These nocturnal pests are drawn to moisture and carbohydrates like starches and sugars. In Oklahoma homes, they often hide in cracks and crevices, where females can lay up to 100 eggs, leading to fast-growing infestations.
