We specialise in Silverfish Pest Control in Borehamwood, with over 30 years of experience in the industry we can quickly identify the problem and recommend the best treatment to remove the infestation and deter silverfish from returning in the future.
Not a commonly known pest, Silverfish are wingless, silvery-blue insects with long antenna and a carrot shaped body. They have destructive feeding habits and in large numbers can cause damage to old books, photographs, wallpaper, plaster and may other household items which contain starch or cellulose.
Silverfish thrive in high humidity where they can be found in dark, damp areas such as kitchens, bathrooms, cellars and lofts. Signs that you may have a silverfish problem are yellow stains on clothing and small holes along the edges of paper, wallpaper and books. You might also find them burrowing in dried food packets.

Our Treatment Programme
Our pest control technician will assess the problem and and talk through the treatment approach. Silverfish are attracted sugar so our treatments take advantage of this using a combination of sprays, powders and baits. They have developed a resistance to many insecticides so it is important to choose the correct options.
Infestations are often helped by damp conditions so we also recommend an effective management plan to reduce damp conditions in the property.
On completion of the treatment our technician will leave a report with you with details of the treatments and recommendations to help prevent further infestations.
