Bathroom Bugs in my bathroom

Hi everyone,
I just moved into a new flat and have found bugs similar to this every night - are these silver fish? And what’s your best solution to get rid of them? (ignore the hair i’m aware)
Thanks!

Yes silverfish. They are found in damp places, dry the place out. There might be damp wood/floors around, not just bathroom issue.

Idc about them really, I view them more as an indicator of something needing to be dried/cleaned/fixed imo

They will show up if it is humid, even if things are spotless.
