Silverfish are sometimes mistaken for centipedes, which do inflict painful bites. One way to tell the difference is to note how many legs the bug has. Upon close inspection of a silverfish, youâll see that it only has six legs. o Silverfish are small insects (between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch) and have shimmering, silver-colored scales.
How many legs does a millipede have? Although the name millipede means thousand legs, they don't really have a thousand legs. Millipedes have two pairs of legs per body segment and single pairs on the first three segments of their body located on their thorax. Although it's rare, some millipedes have four legs on each body segment.
