Karin's silverfish threat

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

Karin brings in a pot containing long-tailed silverfish, which she found in her parents' bathroom. She points out that these invertebrates reproduce prolificly and quickly become a pest that you cannot get rid of, in your home. She says her parents have had them in their house for 20 years, and that her mother had refused to try to get rid of them, since she thought it was 'nice' to have them around. She also says that her dad had moved out of the house, suggesting that the silverfish had also ruined her parents' marriage. Bård notes that she has solved the task, but also likely had a negative effect on the value of her parents' home, by disclosing the infestation on television. Karin rests her case after clarifying that the silverfish could be used to infest the home of an enemy, and they therefore qualify as something that can be used as a threat. Bård awards her second place in the task.
