How to get rid of silverfish.
What are silverfish?
Silverfish are small wingless insects that are about a half inch long.
Where are silverfish found and what kinds of damage do they do?
Silverfish are commonly found in basements, sinks, bookcases, closet shelves, behind baseboards, wallpaper, window and door frames, wall voids, and any other darks areas of the home.
Any time there is a wet area or an area with glues a silverfish is going to be attracted to it. They can do substantial damage to books, tapestries, and wallpaper since they are attracted to the glues in them.
Shampoos and soaps can also bring them towards your sinks. If you find them near a sink, don’t assume they came up from the sink. Instead look for a hole in the wall or ceiling which is probable where they came from.
Indoor Silverfish Preventative Measures
Make sure there isn’t plumbing in the house that leaks. This always attracts all sort of pests and insects as well as the obvious damage to the house with any leaks.
Dehumidify rooms where you find silverfish or other insects to try and make them leave the area at first.
What are some Natural Silverfish Pest Control Products?
A very organic and safe product are Citrus Sprays
. Silverfish hate the scent of citrus. Spray around the baseboards in your house as well as on the outside of the house. Any natural citrus spray will be safe for pets and children so it’s OK to use it generously. Again this is a citrus spray made to get rid of silverfish not a cleaning product that can have dangerous chemicals to pets.
Another products is Diatomaceous Earth. This is an odorless powder that basically dehydrates silverfish and other insects as well as spiders. Sprinkling this around the house in areas where you see silverfish can kill them. You can also use this if you have silverfish in the garden but be aware that it will also kill beneficial insects as well as spiders who come in contact with it.
Another natural solution are insect traps
. Many catch fleas, ants, aphids, and silverfish alike. This is the no chemical solution although it’s won’t work as well as Diatomaceous earth or the citrus sprays.
