Silverfish infestations can be detrimental to your home. Luckily, we’re the experts in silverfish control.
Getting rid of silverfish in the house can be a difficult task. Sometimes called “bristletails,” silverfish are nocturnal creatures that typically roam homes late at night in search of food and water. Their flat bodies allow them to squeeze into even the smallest cracks and crevices during daylight hours. While these creepy crawlies can be an unsightly surprise during a late-night bathroom trip, the good news is that they aren’t harmful to humans and won’t spread any disease-causing pathogens. The bad news is that they are relatively resistant to many insecticides, making professional silverfish control essential.
Silverfish like to snack on a healthy diet of sugars and carbohydrates, which means they may chow down on cereals in your pantry – or worse, your belongings such as books, wallpaper, or clothing. If you notice chewed holes in wallpaper, books, clothing, and linens, you may be dealing with a silverfish infestation. Before you decide how to get rid of silverfish in your home, you’ll first have to confirm the enemy, as these pests look similar to firebrats. Both firebrats and silverfish are nocturnal with soft, wingless, carrot-shaped bodies and long antennae. However, silverfish are shiny silver or pearl grey, ranging between ½ to ¾ inches in length.
