Silverfish Control in Tower Hamlets: what we see locally
Grey silverfish, which tolerate drier conditions, are very common in Tower Hamlets' new towers on the Isle of Dogs, at Canary Wharf and along the river. They spread between flats through service gaps.
Common silverfish are found in damp bathrooms in older blocks and terraces. We treat the cracks and service routes they use.
Grey silverfish often arrive with building materials and spread through new developments before residents move in. They travel between flats along gaps around pipes and in risers, so reporting problems to your managing agent helps the whole building.
