Silverfish

Union County Silverfish Control

Silverfish are wingless, nocturnal insects that are closely related to fireflies. They are about 1.5 inches long and have two long antennae. They have three distinct body sections, two short wings that are almost transparent, and a long, thin tail. While they are not harmful to humans, they can cause extensive damage to paper products and other items in your home.

If you notice silverfish in your home, call Universal Pest Control at (908) 403-3115 to schedule a service.

Signs of a Silverfish Infestation

Silverfish are nocturnal insects that are active at night. They can be difficult to spot during the day because they tend to remain hidden in cracks and crevices until nightfall.

Signs of a silverfish infestation include:

• Damaged books or paper products
• A strong, musty odor
• A silvery, reflective streak on paper
• Small holes in paper products

Silverfish tend to thrive in warm, humid environments. If you notice a strong, musty odor in your home, it could be a sign of a silverfish infestation.
