What Are Silverfish – And Why Are They a Problem?
Silverfish are small, wingless insects known for their silvery scales and wriggling movements. While they don’t bite or spread disease, they feed on paper, glue, fabrics, and starch, making them a real nuisance in homes and businesses.
In humid climates like Sydney, silverfish infestations are common — especially in bathrooms, kitchens, storage rooms, and roof spaces. That’s why you need effective silverfish control to protect your property before they cause costly damage.
Signs You May Need Silverfish Control in Sydney
Silverfish are nocturnal and avoid light, so they often go unnoticed until the damage is done. Common signs include:
-
Feeding marks on books, wallpaper, or cardboard boxes
-
Yellow stains or small black droppings
-
Shed scales or skins in cupboards or drawers
-
Sightings of silverfish around sinks, skirting boards, or dark corners
-
Deterioration of clothing, paper, or wallpaper in humid rooms
If you’ve noticed these signs, professional help is the best way forward.
