Silverfish

Silverfish may be small, but they can cause big headaches for homeowners. These tiny, silver-hued creatures thrive in dark, humid spaces– quickly becoming a nuisance in bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. Feeding on starchy materials like paper, glue, and clothing, silverfish can quickly destroy many of the items you hold dear. 
At Kanga Pest Control, we’re well-prepared to combat silverfish infestations with precision. Through our customized treatments and expert methods, we’ll swiftly eradicate these unwanted intruders from your home and safeguard your precious possessions!
How Do Silverfish Cause Damage?
Silverfish have a voracious appetite, targeting a wide array of household items. Their insatiable feeding habits damage your prized possessions, ranging from cherished books and sentimental wallpaper to favorite clothing items and stored foods.
To detect a silverfish infestation, look for small holes or irregular-shaped notches in paper products, fabric, or cardboard boxes. You may also notice subtle yellowish stains on fabric or paper surfaces, indicative of silverfish excrement. In severe cases, discovering dead silverfish or their discarded skins scattered throughout your home could signal a significant and growing problem. 
If you suspect a silverfish infestation or have noticed signs of damage, don’t hesitate to contact Kanga Pest Control. Our experienced team can assess the situation, provide effective treatment options, and help you protect your home from further damage.

How to Prevent Silverfish From Spreading

  • Wipe down sinks and tubs regularly to prevent moisture buildup, cutting off silverfish’s favorite breeding spots.
  • Take care of any leaky pipes or fixtures to stop excess moisture.
  • Seal cracks in your home’s foundation and add weather stripping around doors and windows to keep silverfish from sneaking in.
  • Make sure crawl spaces have good ventilation to reduce indoor humidity.
  • Use dehumidifiers, air conditioners, and fans to maintain proper humidity levels.
  • Seal any openings around pipes, wires, and utilities entering your home to block silverfish’s potential entry points.
  • Before bringing in packages, plants, or other items, give them a once-over for any signs of silverfish to avoid introducing these pests indoors.
