Silverfish turn up in damp, dark corners of a North Brisbane home, often in bathrooms, laundries, roof voids or boxes of stored papers and books. They feed on paper, glue and fabric, so old boxes in the garage or roof space are a common spot to find them once numbers build up.
When you call 07 3543 7773 about silverfish, tell us where you have seen them and whether you store papers, books or cardboard in the affected area. We book a local team to treat the damp or dark spots silverfish prefer, along with any storage areas where they have been feeding.
Bathrooms and laundries in older North Brisbane homes can hold moisture that silverfish are drawn to, and roof voids with stored boxes give them an undisturbed spot away from the rest of the house. The crew treats these areas and can point out any damp spots worth drying out to keep numbers down.
Brisbane's humid stretches through summer make silverfish more active, since the extra moisture in the air suits them as much as a damp bathroom does. A North Brisbane home with a book collection, old photo boxes or cardboard stored long-term in the roof or garage is worth mentioning on the call, since these spots often need a closer look. Sorting through boxes and airing out damp cupboards alongside the treatment usually helps keep numbers from building back up.
