Silverfish are a bayside problem. The humidity off the water, the timber floors and the roof spaces of Altona's older weatherboards and bungalows give them exactly what they want, and they come out at night to eat the starch in paper, book bindings, wallpaper paste and the cotton and linen in wardrobes. If you are finding holes in clothes, yellow stains on paper or the silvery insects in the bath and the linen cupboard, that is silverfish.
We treat the places they live rather than the places you see them: the roof void, the subfloor, the back of wardrobes and linen cupboards, behind bookshelves, under the bath and along the skirtings in the wet areas. Dust applications in the voids keep working for months. We also tell you the small things that make a difference, like getting air moving through the subfloor and storing paper and linen in sealed tubs rather than cardboard.
