Silverfish have scales over their flat bodies, are about 1.5cm long with long antennae and are often silver in colour. They also have 3 long appendages at their rear.
Silverfish have a preference for dark places and are often found in roof voids, sub floor, wall cavities and any other dark undisturbed places.
Because of their liking of paper, any boxes of files or stored books should be checked for signs of silverfish as their life span can be up to 4 years in ideal situations.
If silverfish have been found in a cupboard please remove all articles on the floor and any on the top shelf before treatment to ensure effective knockdown of the pest and stop any further damage to your important items.
