Hi, Anon with the questionable bug infestation from the other

Yes its a silver fish, and they don't get much bigger than that

Edit- upon closer inspection they have antenna oon their front and a seemingly two more on its back, it wiggles to move and seems to be completely stupid. but still fast. I still haven't found the queen or the mom or whatever it is that keeps making these fuckers. what should i do with this one?

That's a silverfish, OP. That's all the bigger they get and they can't hurt you. They eat sugars and simple plant matter. They barely have mouth parts, but in massive numbers they can damage linens, books, photographs, and so on.

They can live six to eight years and reproduce in great numbers. There is no queen. This one you should just let be, because squashing them releases sex pheromones into the air that attracts more.

Their mating habits are weird. It's a little ritual. First they bonk heads and stare each other down, then the male runs away and if the female catches him they cuddle until the male drops a sperm ball that the female eats with her butt tube. Then she lays her eggs. Usually in groups of less than 60, and very very rarely more than 100 in her lifetime.

The babies have a high mortality rate because they're delicious to beetles and centipedes.

Once adults, they molt a lot so they're very hardy. Their dead skin can be consumed by silverfish or used by you to make a tannish eye shadow if you have any desiccated whale fat and preservative laying around. Sprays less than industrial strength in several expensive application is ineffective.

They don't live in colonies, so while mixing boric acid with Elmer's glue can make attractive traps for them once the glue dries, it will take a long time to kill them.

Just clean up your place so they stay in the walls or learn to live with them. If they run out of food choices they'll start to eat your dead skin cells and keep you clean because they like polysaccharides and dextrin. Sometimes they'll eat fallen hair in a pinch, so if you go bald you might have an ecosystem based on insects eating your hair, but that's unlikely.

Enjoy your new friends!
