Common Causes of Silverfish Infestations:

Main Attractants:

• High Humidity: Silverfish thrive in 75-95% humidity environments
• Moisture: Leaky pipes, damp basements, bathrooms with poor ventilation
• Food Sources: Books, papers, cardboard, fabrics, wallpaper paste
• Dark Areas: Undisturbed storage areas, attics, basements
• Entry Points: Cracks, gaps in walls, brought in with boxes or books

High-Risk Areas:

• Bathrooms with poor ventilation
• Basements and storage rooms
• Kitchens near leaky plumbing
• Attics with roof leaks
• Libraries and book storage areas

⚠️ Key Factor: Moisture control is critical - silverfish cannot survive in dry environments below 50% humidity.

Effective Prevention Strategies:

Moisture Control:

• Use Dehumidifiers: Keep humidity below 50% in problem areas
• Fix Leaks: Repair all plumbing leaks immediately
• Improve Ventilation: Install exhaust fans in bathrooms and basements
• Remove Standing Water: Don't let water accumulate anywhere

Environmental Modifications:

• Store books, papers in dry, well-ventilated areas
• Use plastic storage containers instead of cardboard
• Seal cracks and crevices in walls and baseboards
• Reduce clutter and clean storage areas regularly
• Remove old newspapers, magazines, cardboard boxes

Best Prevention: Combination of professional treatment + moisture control + sanitation = long-term silverfish-free environment.

Silverfish Have Slow But Persistent Reproduction:

Reproduction Facts:

• Egg Production: Females lay 1-3 eggs per day, up to 100 eggs in lifetime
• Egg Development: Eggs hatch in 2-8 weeks depending on temperature and humidity
• Maturity: Nymphs take 3-4 months to reach adulthood
• Lifespan: Adults live 2-8 years, continuously reproducing

Why Professional Treatment Is Important:

• Slow reproduction means infestations build gradually
• By the time you see silverfish, population is already established
• Long lifespan means problem persists without treatment
• Multiple generations present simultaneously

⚠️ Important: Early treatment prevents small infestations from becoming severe. Don't wait until damage occurs.
