What Are Silverfish? Silverfish (Lepisma saccharina) are small, wingless, six-legged insects about 3/4 inch long. Their solid silvery gray color looks metallic. Their movements are somewhat fishlike, hence their other name—fish moths. Silverfish are sometimes called bristletails because of the three tail-like tendrils on their rear sections. More @Wikipedia
