Silverfish mostly cause damage to property and could be a trouble:
The destruction caused by silverfish can be irretrievable for books, fabrics as well as stored foods. It is especially expensive for homeowners and businesses that keep archival materials or textiles.
Though they do not carry any diseases, they may contaminate foods as they hunt for food sources.
Because of their secretive nature, nocturnal habits, and capability to survive long periods without food, they can be very difficult to get rid of.
Their mere existence is quite disconcerting to many people, especially when there is an excessive number of them around.
The existence of silverfish in a property is usually an indicator of some moisture problem.
Preventing silverfish infestations focuses on reducing humidity and removing their food sources:
The most crucial step. Use dehumidifiers or air conditioning to keep indoor humidity levels low approx below 50%. Ensure good ventilation in bathrooms, kitchens and basements.
Repair leaking pipes and roof leaks and maintain proper drainage around your property to reduce moisture.
Store books, documents and other susceptible items in dry, airtight containers. Avoid storing paper or fabrics in damp basements or attics directly on floors.
Frequently vacuum carpets, floors and crevices to remove food debris and silverfish eggs.
Seal cracks and crevices in walls, floors and around pipes to block their entry points and hiding spots.
