Small pests like silverfish can be hard to catch, but necessary to stop before they populate into a full-blown infestation. For that, there’s H2 Pest Control, providing some of the best pest control in Eagle Mountain, Lehi, and other Utah County locations.
Silverfish have flat, thin, and tapered bodies that slightly resemble a fish with their silver scales. They are fast crawlers and generally only come out at night, making them difficult to notice. The sooner you do notice these pests, though, the sooner you can prevent a larger infestation before they begin laying eggs around your house.
This could be in any room, although common areas to find silverfish are dark, warm, and moist areas. Good places to start looking for silverfish are humid spots in your home or business, such as bathrooms and laundry rooms or exposed hot water piping.
Silverfish also are known to eat paper and may hide away in musty bookshelves or books and files left in cardboard storage boxes. In many cases, silverfish make their way into homes in the first place by stowing away into boxes when moving. Newly built homes may see even more silverfish that are attracted to the fresh, sometimes humid wood and other building materials.
Beyond ruining your book collection, silverfish can cause loads of other damage to your belongings and property. That may include wallpaper, carpet fibers, upholstery, and other fabrics. Before they get the chance to cause damage, put a stop to silverfish with help from pest control experts near you.
