An Encounter with a Silverfish inside a Posh Hotel In Dubai

A silverfish emerging from the shadows of a corner wall

I was on assignment for a site audit for a very posh hotel property in the heart of Dubai, I was invited to advise the hotel management on procedures how they can detect, control  and prevent the tide of insect pest sightings  in their rooms. As I was conducting my inspection in one of the rooms, a large, darting creature came out from the shadows. I was surprise by its size and the rapidity of its movement as it emerged, crawled away and concealed itself again on a gap on the corner wall. As far as I remember this was the largest Silverfish I have seen in the field. It was the long, triune whip-like tail that immediately caught my fancy. It was a quick but fantastic encounter!  

Awesome creatures! Awesome CREATOR!
