Silverfish are a quite common pest in homes and some businesses. They love moist, humid areas around water pipes, washrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens, etc. Condos, multi unit homes and apartment buildings are the most common sites to find silverfish. Keeping the humidity of the home below 75%, proper attic/soffit ventilation, and repairing any leaking roofing or water pipes are helpful ways control these pests.
Keeping the clutter of books and paper at a minimum also helps. Baseboard treatments can be done when the problem is bothersome to customers to help control the population. Dusts and fogging can also be used in attics as well in severe cases.
