Silverfish

Description

Silvery in colour, are long (12mm) and thin with fine antennae at the fornt and three tail-like appendages at the back. Silverfish appreciate damp, humid conditions and so are often found in kitchens, larders, bathroom and behind loose wallpaper as they readily eat gums and glues.

Treatment and control

Dusting the site

Spray with Home Defence Ant Stop! Gun (contains deltamethrin) and then try to reduce condensation and damp conditions in which silverfish thrive.

Always read the label. Use pesticides safely.
