It looks like a silverfish. Don't if they ferment or float though.

acasta - I'm perfectly relaxed. Just standing up for my bug brothers. They don't need a brewer's belsen.
 
Pretty hard to offend me. You could try shitting in my food cupboard.

Apparently that didn't doesn't work! :p

Anyway, so you boil and rinse, what bugs could live through that? or am I missing some under lying gag here?

Edit: The kettle is not the source they are living near by by the sounds..

Nit-picking but that pic is the first image in bing or google or whatever and I'm guessing an american silverfish. I get the same bugs as acasta at my joint so typed in australian silverfish and found these. Can't be stuffed trying to figure out how to embed a picture right now - http://www.enviropesttech.com.au/images/silverfish.jpg

That image doesn't look too much like a silverfish to me either although pages on firebrats seem to associate the two.

Anyway suggested measures for control here: http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/...ing/DK1018.html
