Spotting silverfish and where to look

Silverfish look like small, flat, silvery-grey insects that move quickly when disturbed. You may notice them near bathroom tiles, under sinks, along skirting boards, or in cupboards where there is little airflow and persistent humidity.

How the visit works

Treatment is applied to areas identified during the inspection to reduce silverfish activity where they live and travel.

Common questions about silverfish control

Where do silverfish usually hide indoors?

Silverfish commonly hide in dark, sheltered spaces where humidity is higher. People often find them near bathrooms or laundries, under sinks, along skirting, and inside cupboards where they can stay undisturbed.

What should I do before a silverfish control visit?

You will receive prep instructions specific to your situation and the areas being treated. In general, follow the guidance for clearing access points and preparing treated zones so the technician can work effectively.

What should I expect after treatment?

After a visit, follow the provided aftercare steps to avoid interfering with treated areas. This helps the treatment work properly and supports prevention of return sightings.

Why do silverfish keep coming back even after cleaning?

Silverfish often return when the hidden harbourage or moisture conditions are still present. Cleaning helps, but control works better when the inspection identifies the hiding places and the conditions supporting activity.

Can I prevent silverfish from returning?

Prevention usually focuses on reducing the indoor conditions that silverfish prefer, especially moisture and undisturbed hiding spots. The technician will share practical steps based on what they find during the inspection.
