Meet the silverfish, a small, silvergrey creature who loves to wiggle its way around your home. This little fellow gets its name from its shiny, silver-grey color and the fish-like way it moves. They have a teardrop shape and are about half an inch long, with three long, thin tails at the end of their bodies.  \nNow that we've met our wiggly friend, let's take a peek into its life. Silverfish are nocturnal animals, meaning they like to come out at night and are pretty shy during the day. They have a fascinating life cycle, starting as an egg, then becoming a nymph (a baby bug) and finally growing into an adult silverfish. These little creatures can live for up to eight years, which is pretty long for abug!  \nBut what do these nocturnal wigglers eat and where do they hang out? Silverfish have a pretty varied diet which includes sugar, hair, dandruff and even glue!
