Identify the activity and harbourage
We check common hiding spots such as bathrooms, laundries, under sinks, along skirting edges, and inside storage areas where humidity builds.
If you are seeing quick scurrying insects, especially in damp corners, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help you tackle the source.

How we handle a silverfish issue
Silverfish usually thrive where there is moisture and accessible hiding spots. We assess activity patterns, locate likely harbourage, and then treat the areas that matter most based on what we find.
We check common hiding spots such as bathrooms, laundries, under sinks, along skirting edges, and inside storage areas where humidity builds.
Where suitable conditions are found, we recommend practical changes to reduce dampness and make hiding places less favourable.
Treatment focuses on the specific harbourage and pathways identified during inspection, rather than only the insects you happen to spot.
We explain what to do before and after the visit, including how to manage treated areas with children and pets.
Silverfish activity tends to cluster where moisture, clutter, and dark gaps provide shelter. These are typical starting points for inspection and treatment.
We assess damp areas around sinks, pipes, and ventilation, plus nearby cupboard and skirting edges.
We check for harbourage behind and under appliances, inside storage, and along gaps where movement routes develop.
We look for hidden gaps behind items and around stored goods where humidity lingers.
Our treatment plan is guided by what we observe on site and the behavioural patterns silverfish show in indoor spaces.

Silverfish typically hide in dark, sheltered spots and where there is moisture. Common areas include bathrooms and laundries, under sinks, behind stored items, and along skirting edges where they can move quietly.
Cleaning alone may remove what you see, but silverfish can remain in hidden harbourage. If moisture drivers and hiding spots are not addressed, the activity can restart and sightings may continue.
We will share prep instructions that suit your household and the areas being treated. In general, it helps to clear access to suspected harbourage zones and follow guidance for safer handling around children and pets.
After the visit, you can monitor whether sightings are reducing in the same areas where activity was seen. If activity appears to persist or new hotspots emerge, contact 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney so we can advise on next steps.
