What are Silverfish?

Have you ever pulled a book off the shelf or could be opened an old wooden container simply to get surprised while these white creepy creatures dart off? Well, we are talking about silverfish.

Silverfish have been present for a number of years, coexisting with ancient animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking around the ground for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like look and give off an impression of becoming whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there’s been no known evidence that they cause illnesses or inflict poison, however, then they are seen as a pest in homes and organisations.

Their existence is sometimes undetected and homeowners frequently transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. Once inside, they find a secure dark and damp place where they can nestle and strain, and over time spread everywhere. These pests will enter homes through foundation cracks, torn screens, or openings around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish inside. They are not known to spread illnesses but they are capable of triggering allergic reactions in some people and further damage possessions. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to their strange appearance.

John Chidiac
Real Estate Property Manager. Prior to the introduction I had used other Companys who did not offer the same professional service I attained from Local Pest Control. No job was too small or too big and they were always contactable and were able to attend to the job quickly. The quality of their service and the work performed is second to none. I have used the Company for my own family needs as well and I will never again use another Company for my Pest Control needs.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!
