These nocturnal creatures thrive in dark, moist areas, and spotting them should prompt you to take immediate action before the problem worsens.

Whether you need complete silverfish extermination or just a little help getting them out of your space, we’ve got you covered.
Silverfish love dark, damp places where they can find food sources like paper, fabrics, and even glue. They sneak into your home in search of these conditions, nesting in hidden areas like behind wallpaper, under floors, or in attic insulation. Left unchecked, their infestation can become more complicated to handle.
