I'm guessing Delena or Isopoda, but you'll need to have a closer look at the pattern on the top side of abdomen. Does it have a central, wide dark blaze, or does it have 3-4 pairs of dark spots? Here's a better shot of the abdomen.

Blimey, you seem to have a lot of these guys at your place. Just one hint, they are under terrestrial invertebrates - spiders, not insects, when you are making the suggestion. We find they are helpful at keeping silverfish under control at our place, but unfortunately we squash a lot when we close our casement windows and find they were lurking between the back edge of the window and the frame.
