Silverfish Control in Kingston upon Thames: what we see locally
Silverfish thrive in damp, humid rooms such as bathrooms and kitchens, and come out at night to feed on starch, paper and crumbs.
Grey silverfish, which tolerate drier conditions, are increasingly found in new riverside flats in Kingston and Surbiton and in student accommodation. They spread between flats through service gaps. We treat the cracks and service routes they use.
