Silverfish in North Lakes homes tend to turn up in damp, dark spots such as bathrooms, laundries, roof spaces and boxes of stored books or paper. They feed on starches and can damage paper, fabric and wallpaper over time, which is often what prompts a call once the damage is noticed. Silverfish are most active at night and move quickly when disturbed, so a lot of homeowners in North Lakes notice the damage to books, boxes or wallpaper well before they ever see one moving.
The crew we book will check bathrooms, laundries, built-in robes and any storage areas for signs of activity, along with damp or poorly ventilated spots where silverfish tend to gather. Reducing moisture around the home, such as fixing a slow leak or improving airflow in a laundry, often helps alongside a treatment visit.
Homes in North Lakes with older bathrooms, subfloor damp or a lot of stored paper and cardboard in the garage or roof space tend to see more silverfish activity than newer, well-ventilated homes. The crew will check these areas as part of the visit rather than only treating the room you first noticed them in. Running an exhaust fan during and after a shower and keeping stored boxes off the floor of a garage or roof space both help keep humidity down between visits.
