Silverfish Control Sydney
Professional Silverfish Pest Control Services
Silverfish are a common pest that can infest properties in Sydney. They are mostly active at night. They feed on starchy materials like paper, photographs, cardboard boxes, or fabrics containing cotton, linen, silk or rayon. Moreover, they can damage your belongings and be difficult to get rid of on your own.
We have over 10 years of experience in effective silverfish pest control. Our pest control technicians use solutions that are safe for your family, pets, and the environment. We remove silverfish and prevent future infestations.
Silverfish problems should not be ignored. These pests can reproduce fast, and a few can turn into hundreds within months. They feed on materials that contain starch, sugars, cellulose and other organic compounds. This means your books, papers, wallpaper, paintings, important documents, clothes and other household items are at risk of being damaged.

Our effective treatments can eliminate silverfish and prevent future outbreaks.

What are silverfish?
These are small wingless insects that are typically 3 to 12 mm long. They have a tapered, silver colour body with three long tail-like appendages at the rear. They go through simple metamorphosis and pass through egg, nymph, and adult stages during their development.
These are scavengers that feed on starchy food or sugary materials high in carbohydrates.
You’ll often find them in:
- closets,
- attics,
- roof spaces,
- wall cavities,
- kitchens,
- bathrooms,
- basements,
- laundry,
- closets or wardrobes,
- and under sinks
Food spills and damp conditions attract them. These bugs come out at night and can crawl into small cracks in search of food to feed on.
Risks
A silverfish poses several risks:
- Damage and destruction of documents, photos, artwork, books, clothing, carpet and more
- Allergies or asthma issues may happen due to skin sheddings and droppings they leave behind
- They can reproduce quickly and can be difficult to control
- They can spread to other areas and rooms through cracks, holes, and conduits
Signs of Infestation
There are several clear signs that can indicate the presence of silverfish in your home:
- Visible sightings of the grayish insects, usually at night
- Small, dark droppings in piles near their hiding places
- Damaged things that show notches, holes, or faded spots from being eaten
- Detection of a musty sweet odor near their harborages or nesting areas
- Presence of exoskeletons that they shed during the growth process
