“Discover How You Can Easily Get Rid Of Silverfish in Less Than 1 Week and Never See One in Your Home Again”

Where Do Silverfish Come From?

Where do silverfish come from? If we could figure this out then it might lend some clues on how to get rid of them and keep them out of the house.

History

Silverfish have existed on this planet for up to 300 million years. To put this into some context, this is from a time before the dinosaurs existed! Roughly speaking, cockroaches and silverfish have existed on the planet for around the same length of time.

Clearly, these are a hardy species of insect. They have adapted to live for long periods without food (up to a year) and can move quickly to evade predators. This makes their eradication from your home more difficult but not an impossible task.

Silverfish Like People

One thing that all pests have in common is that they gravitate towards people. Wherever people are, warmth, food and hiding places also tend to be in great abundance.

In this respect, silverfish are no different. Silverfish love the dark cracks and crevices in people's homes. Not only do they make for excellent hiding places but they also tend to be warm and moist - and silverfish love moisture.

Silverfish survive on carbohydrates and this is the main reason why they are so abundant in kitchens. If you fail to clear up crumbs after you have eaten then do not be surprised to see a silverfish appear not long after. The paper in books and wallpaper is also a great source of food for these critters. I recommend that you keep all paper out of sight. If you can see any paper then you can bet that the silverfish will find it.

Where Do They Live?

Outdoors, you will rarely see them. They have to look extra hard to find a warm, moist place. They will even set up home in the nests of other animals.

Indoors, you will find many of them hiding behind walls. Corners are a major source of them. Gaps next to pipes are another. Silverfish may even come out of your oven when you open the door!

Silverfish don't like conditions that are too warm. You are unlikely to find them next to a boiler or water heater so you might think these a safe place to leave your clothes. Actually, this is where their cousin, the firebrat, likes to lurk. Firebrats prefer warmer conditions, up to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. They grow to a similar size and have a slightly different appearance but are just as annoying.
