How to Prevent a Silverfish Infestation in Your Home

Silverfish might be small, but they can quickly become a nuisance if left unchecked. These pests are attracted to moist environments, so the best way to prevent an infestation is by keeping your home dry. Areas like bathrooms, attics, and basements are common spots for silverfish, so be sure to fix any leaks and use dehumidifiers if needed.

In addition, reducing clutter and sealing cracks or gaps around windows and doors can prevent silverfish from finding shelter. If you do encounter silverfish, consider using natural repellents like essential oils or diatomaceous earth, or call a pest control professional to help manage the problem before it gets worse.
