Silverfish in a Hamilton home usually turn up in damp spots such as bathrooms, laundries and cupboards under the sink, along with paper-based hiding spots like bookshelves, stored boxes and the backs of wardrobes. The crew we book treats these areas together, since silverfish move between them looking for both moisture and food. Skirting boards, the gaps behind built-in wardrobes and the corners of ceilings in older homes are further spots worth a check.
Old books, documents and cardboard boxes stored in a garage or spare room give silverfish plenty to eat, and a treatment that skips these areas tends to see numbers creep back within a few months. The crew will ask about storage areas in your Hamilton property so nothing gets missed during the visit, including boxes tucked into the back of a wardrobe or under a bed that might not come to mind straight away.
Reducing damp around the home helps keep numbers down after the treatment. That might mean better airflow in a bathroom, fixing a small leak or moving stored boxes off the floor and away from a damp wall, all of which the crew can point out while they are on site. Switching paper storage to plastic tubs where practical is a simple change that makes a real difference over time.
