Although considered more of a nuisance than a true health risk, silverfish damage various types of materials found inside homes and businesses. Silverfish are aptly named based on their “fish-like” movements and their metallic and scaly bodies. The body of a silverfish is roughly half of an inch long, has a shiny silver appearance and a pair of long antennae.
Silverfish usually remain hidden in dark crevices during the daytime, where they still have access to sufficient moisture. These nocturnal creatures are most active at night and commonly cause damage to wallpaper, books, soft fabrics, and more. This is due to the silverfish diet.
The silverfish diet consists of a wide variety of items that contain sugar and carbohydrates. When indoors, they may be found rummaging through dry goods in pantries such as pasta or cookies but also will consume paper, some fabrics, glue, and more.
Silverfish are commonly seen in locations such as kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms near drains, air conditioners, and below sinks.
Silverfish do not hibernate, making them a potential year-round pest.
They generally avoid extreme temperatures that are too cold or hot. Getting rid of silverfish is often challenging; therefore, learning how to prevent silverfish from entering is typically encouraged.
Silverfish are drawn to areas of dampness and darkness. They will infest voids between floors and ceiling, interior walls, and other crevices that allow for remaining hidden.
Some of the best tips for preventing access and limiting silverfish damage include:
Too many property owners make the mistake of attempting do-it-yourself treatment options that are promoted as being a “quick and simple” solution to pest-related concerns. Many of these products such as aerosol sprays, sticky traps, and baiting stations tend to produce very minimal results that allow for pest problems to worsen as these creatures expand into adjacent areas of the structure and multiply.
Also, some of these options for getting rid of silverfish might contain harsh chemical formulas that pose health risks to humans, pets, and the local environment.
