yeah - silverfish. Not technically an insect, and not terribly harmful to anything except paper products and wallpaper glue. I'm not sure that anything active you do to get rid of them (eg spraying) wouldn't be worse than having them around. I'd recommend drying things out and seeing if that's enough to knock the numbers down. A dehumidifier might do the trick, and it would certainly help your bathroom walls..
