What are silverfish?
Silverfish are small, wingless insects known for their destructive feeding habits, feasting on books, wallpaper, and clothing. Their preference for damp, cool environments makes residential properties an ideal breeding ground.
Signs of Silverfish Infestation
Identifying a silverfish infestation early is crucial. Look out for:
- Visible silverfish, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and basements
- Damage to paper goods and fabrics
- Silverfish droppings resembling black pepper
