I noticed these guys first in the building's laundry room scurrying around and now I've seen one in my apartment. He is pretty fast on his feet. His head is facing towards the top of the picture so those long antenna are on his rear.
they are harmless, we spotted some in our house randomly for a week or so, they die off really quickly just vacuum them up... I don't know if you can get an infestation of them because it didn't happen to us, don't know what its called though, however they look disgusting. lol.

Physically, it looks like a silverfish. They're mostly harmless, as they don't carry any diseases, but they eat starch, so the glue in bound books get nibbled on.

"It's called Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries... Yep, it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good ... They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time. "
silver fish eats the bindings in books as stated before. they also eat the glue used in baseboards. clean em up as you see them before they grow in numbers.
Well thanks for the identification. They are hanging around my book shelves so I will be killing them with fire if I catch em - can't have em destroying my Michener collection or Haynes manuals.
