On-site inspection and mapping
A technician checks likely harbourage areas such as damp corners, storage areas, skirting edges, and other sheltered spots, then pinpoints the areas to treat.
If you are seeing silverfish indoors, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help by locating the harbourage conditions and treating where they hide. After the visit, you will get clear steps to reduce the risk of them returning.
Silverfish prefer damp, sheltered areas. The fastest improvement usually comes from combining targeted treatment with drying and housekeeping around likely harbourages.
What silverfish control involves
Silverfish are often noticed at night, when they move across floors and along walls. If the hiding spots and moisture conditions are still present, you can keep seeing them even after spot cleaning.
You might spot small, wingless, silver-grey insects that move quickly when lights are turned on. They are commonly found near skirting boards, books or paper storage, behind cupboards, and in humid-looking corners or bathrooms.
How we handle silverfish control
Every visit starts with an inspection to confirm where the silverfish are coming from and what conditions are supporting them. Then we apply targeted treatment in and around identified harbourages, followed by clear actions you can take to reduce moisture and hiding places.
A technician checks likely harbourage areas such as damp corners, storage areas, skirting edges, and other sheltered spots, then pinpoints the areas to treat.
Treatment is applied in the identified harbourages and along relevant routes inside the home to reduce silverfish activity.
You are given practical guidance on drying, reducing moisture sources, and limiting clutter in the treated areas.
If you still see silverfish after the visit, further assessment may be needed to adjust the focus of treatment.
Silverfish issues are usually about environment and harbourage, not only the insects you see. This is why the service blends targeted treatment with condition changes.
Treating the places silverfish shelter is more useful than repeatedly wiping up insects where they briefly appear.
Simple changes like reducing damp conditions and limiting paper and cardboard storage near problem areas can make a difference.
Silverfish often travel along concealed edges, such as behind furniture and within gaps, so these areas are part of the inspection.
Silverfish control decisions are based on what is found on-site, not guesses.
Your visit is built around inspection, targeted treatment, and practical after-visit instructions.

I kept finding silverfish near storage and skirting. The inspection showed the likely harbourages, and the follow-up advice helped us reduce the conditions they liked.

Silverfish were appearing in the same kinds of spots. The approach focused on where they hid, not just where they were spotted, which made the difference.
We appreciated the practical recommendations and the tidy finish after the visit.
The response was prompt and the treatment plan was easy to understand.
Professional service with helpful guidance on preventing repeat issues.
Silverfish often shelter in damp or sheltered areas such as behind cupboards, near skirting boards, and around paper or fabric storage. If you notice them moving quickly when lights are turned on, the harbourage is usually nearby.
Clear access to the areas you have seen silverfish, especially around storage and edges like skirting. If possible, let the technician know which rooms you see the insects most often and when you usually spot them.
Not always. While housekeeping helps, silverfish are strongly influenced by moisture and sheltered harbourages, so they can appear even in homes that are reasonably tidy.
If activity continues, it usually means the harbourage conditions or access routes need re-checking. The next step is further assessment so the treatment focus can be adjusted.
You will receive after-visit guidance on what to do around the treated areas. Follow any instructions about keeping people and pets away from specific zones during and shortly after the visit.
