Common Silverfish

The common silverfish is the most frequent type that invades homes. It is shiny and light grey and grows to about half an inch long. It thrives in secluded, humid areas like basements or garages.

Grey Silverfish

Grey silverfish are less shiny than common silverfish. They are dull, matte grey and may look fuzzy to the naked eye. Gray silverfish prefer warmer areas like crawl spaces and attics. However, they are more likely to roam throughout your home compared to common silverfish. They thrive at around 80 °F and are less dependent on high humidity than other silverfish species.

Four-Lined Silverfish

Four-lined silverfish are the most distinct of the three common species in the Temecula area. They are generally stouter than common silverfish and have dark lines running down their backs. Some say they look ‘snake-like’ under the proper lighting. Like the grey silverfish, this species likes warmer environments and is not afraid to roam your home.

Setting Up Silverfish Traps

We set up specialized traps targeting silverfish in your home’s key areas to enhance the treatment process. These traps are placed in bathrooms, attics, and storage spaces.

How much does pest control cost for silverfish?

Should you call an exterminator if you see a silverfish?
Yes. If you see a silverfish, it is usually an indicator of hundreds more living in the crevices of your home. Silverfish are nocturnal and elusive, so if you're spotting them during the day, chances are there's a sizable population hiding in your home. Calling an exterminator like Simple Pest early can help prevent a full-blown infestation.
What are the signs of silverfish?
The most common sign of silverfish is seeing one dart across your floors after mowing an object. Less obvious signs of silverfish include spotting tiny peppercorn-looking droppings, yellow spots on and around books and paper and shed skin.
Are silverfish harmful?
No, silverfish do not bite or carry diseases. However, over time, they can significantly damage books and clothing and get into food.
What should you do if silverfish come into your home?
Call a professional pest control service like Simple Pest if you see silverfish in your home. We will help identify the extent of the infestation, eliminate the current population, and take measures to prevent future infestations. In the meantime, keep your house clean and run a dehumidifier.
