Pest Control and Management for Silverfish Infestation
Silverfish can only reproduce during the summer and they lay eggs that hatch in about a week.
Here are the simple ways you can do to remove silverfish from your house:
1. Vacuuming – You can vacuum the silverfish and its eggs out of your house. This is also a good way to prevent them from coming back into your house.
2. Diatomaceous Earth – It will kill the silverfish and its eggs if you sprinkle it around the perimeter of your home and in any cracks where they are likely to reside.
3. Seal Cracks – Seal any cracks in the walls or floors with caulk or other sealants that will prevent them from getting into those areas again.
4. Seal Food – Seal any food that you are storing in containers.
5. Keep Areas Clean – Make sure you keep your home clean and free from clutter so that it will be harder for the silverfish to find places to hide.
