Silverfish Control in Haringey: what we see locally
Silverfish thrive in damp, humid rooms. Basement flats and older bathrooms in Haringey's Victorian houses suit them well.
Grey silverfish are increasingly found in new developments, including the large new blocks at Tottenham Hale and around Wood Green. They spread between flats through service gaps.
We treat cracks, skirting and service routes and advise on reducing humidity.
