Observation
Remotus spots these quick-moving pests with ease. Silverfish are small, wingless insects with a slender, teardrop-shaped body covered in shiny, silver-gray scales. They are nocturnal and often found in damp, dark areas such as basements, bathrooms, and kitchens. Remotus advises you to look for their wriggling movements and the damage they cause to paper, books, wallpaper, and clothing, which they feed on.
Outlook
Remotus understands the nuisance these pests can become. While silverfish do not pose a direct threat to humans, they can cause damage to household items by feeding on starchy materials, including paper, glue, and textiles. Over time, they can ruin books, documents, wallpaper, and even clothing. Remotus recommends taking steps to control humidity levels in your home to make it less hospitable to these pests.
Gateways
Remotus knows how they infiltrate. Silverfish can enter homes through cracks and gaps in walls, foundations, and around windows. They are attracted to moisture and can easily find their way into damp areas. Remotus suggests sealing entry points, reducing humidity with dehumidifiers, and storing items like books and clothing in airtight containers to prevent infestations.
