Silverfish Control

Silverfish have powerful teeth that can chew through clothing, paper, wallpaper, and even materials in your home. They’re annoyances at best, and when they’re at their worst, they can even damage treasured family relics such as irreplaceable photographs!

They do not spread bacteria or diseases that are harmful to you or your family, but their excrement can have an unpleasant odor. Silverfish infestations aren’t time-sensitive, but they’re still a problem you’ll want to address.

We offer the following silverfish treatment packages:

We inspect for the presence of general pests whenever we visit your house for any of our services, so we’re always on the lookout for silverfish! We utilize a professional grade insecticide along the exterior of your home and along the interior perimeter as well to fully treat for silverfish (along your skirting boards).

To control silverfish, hire a professional team (like us!) because we also employ a fine dust treatment around water sources and hard-to-reach regions. Silverfish can lurk behind dishwashers, behind sink cabinets, in drains, and in laundry areas, making them tough to control if we don’t pay special attention to these locations.

Why Are Silverfish Such a Problem?

  • They’ll eat everything you own.
  • They can be found practically anywhere in your house, although they favor dark, undisturbed regions like walls, roofs, and below furniture.
  • They consume your meal! Silverfish are particularly fond of starchy meals like cereals and grains, as well as the boxes in which they are housed.
  • During the day, they conceal and feed at night.
  • They’re extraordinarily quick and nimble, and they can even detach the scales on their backs to flee predators!
  • Silverfish have a four-year lifespan.

How You Can Prevent and Control Silverfish

  • Inspect any secondhand things for pests, including silverfish, before bringing them into your home. Pay special attention to:
    – Books
    – Clothing
    – Bedding
    – Furniture
  • Keep your books, papers, and clothing in areas that are bright and well-ventilated as much as possible.
  • Maintain a clean environment in your home, particularly in the kitchen.
  • Foods that are starchy should be stored in airtight plastic containers to avoid becoming an enticing food source for silverfish.
  • Remember that items left in the back corners of cupboards and closets, where they are rarely disturbed, are great targets for silverfish to establish a home.
