Inspection and problem mapping
We inspect likely harbourage areas such as bathrooms, laundry spaces, cupboards, and behind stored items, and we check for moisture-related conditions.
If you are seeing silverfish in cupboards, bathrooms, or along skirting boards, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help you identify where they are coming from and control the infestation.
Silverfish thrive where moisture and hiding spots line up, so the fastest way to reduce activity is to target both the harbourage and the conditions that support it.
Inspection first, treatment focused
Silverfish Control by 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney starts with identifying the harbourage, checking moisture points, and mapping how silverfish are getting around your property. The goal is to reduce activity by addressing both the current infestation and the conditions that keep it going.
You might notice small, wingless, silvery-grey insects moving quickly when lights go on, often near skirting boards or behind shelves. They are commonly seen around damp rooms, under sinks, and in closets where clutter traps humidity and food debris.
A clear process you can follow
The process focuses on finding why silverfish are comfortable in your space, then treating the areas that support them. For full details, see the service page for Silverfish Control.

Silverfish tend to hide during the day and become more noticeable when lights go on. If you are seeing them near damp corners or behind stored items, that usually points to harbourage and moisture conditions that need addressing.
Clear access around the areas you have noticed activity, such as cupboards, bathroom zones, laundry spaces, and skirting areas. It also helps to note when you see them, including after showers or when using laundry facilities, so the technician can focus the inspection.
Silverfish activity can continue if the moisture and hiding conditions remain. The service includes targeted treatment based on what is found, plus after-visit guidance to reduce the factors that allow them to persist.
Common places include bathrooms and laundries, under sinks, along skirting boards, and behind stored items where humidity can sit. If you find activity near these zones, it is a strong clue for where inspection and treatment should focus.
Follow the after-visit instructions you receive, which are based on what was found at your property. In general, reducing moisture and limiting food and harbourage by cleaning and organising storage helps prevent new silverfish from settling in.
