A sliverfish is a wrong spelling. The correct name is Silverfish or Fish moth. It is no kind of fish at all and it is not any kind of moth either. It is any of a number of kinds of insects that scientists call Thysanura. Some of them are silvery grey in colour and they have a slightly fishy shape, which is why one of the things people call them is "silverfish". They have no wings at all, and none of their ancestors had wings either. In that way they differ from say dragonflies, that have wings, and lice, that have no wings, but whose ancestors had wings. They feed on rubbish, which does no harm, but they also nibble at starchy food and materials like paper, so they can be a pest in libraries.
As someone said in another answer: Once I was in my bed and I felt that there was a some type of insect in my bed and when I looked I saw it was a silver fish feeding on my clothing!

How do you get rid of sliverfish?
To get rid of silverfish, start by eliminating their food sources, such as paper, cardboard, and damp materials. Seal cracks and crevices in walls and around windows to prevent their entry. Use diatomaceous earth in areas where you've seen them; it dehydrates and kills the pests. Additionally, consider using traps or insecticides specifically designed for silverfish, and maintain low humidity levels in your home to deter their presence.
