How to deal with silverfish

Silverfish are a nocturnal insect that like to be in places that are dark, damp and cold. So be on the lookout in your bathrooms and kitchens. The good news is is that they do not bite, spread diseases or do a lot of damage to our homes, they mainly like to nibble on items such as paper, glue, dry goods, cereal boxes etc.

If you do see the odd one or two silverfish in your home, do not be completely worried. It is when they show up in larger numbers is when you need to take action.
