Inspection and pinpointing harbourage
We look for where silverfish are coming from and where they rest most often, based on the evidence you have noticed during and around your home.
If you are seeing fast-moving silver-grey insects in damp cupboards or near skirting boards, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help reduce the infestation by treating likely harbourage areas and improving conditions that keep silverfish active.
Silverfish usually hide where moisture and food residues build up. We focus on finding the harbourage and helping you remove the conditions that support repeat activity.
What this service helps with
Silverfish control targets the areas where these pests hide and move between. The aim is to lower visible activity and reduce the chances of repeat infestations by addressing moisture, food residues, and harbourage.
Silverfish are small, wingless insects with a silvery, tapered body that can look like they are moving quickly across floors when lights are turned on. You may also find them near damp corners, under sinks, or inside cupboards, especially where residues build up.
How the service works

Professional service with helpful guidance on preventing repeat issues.
Silverfish commonly hide in damp, concealed areas such as under sinks, inside cupboards, and along skirting edges and cracks. They also move through places where residues can build up, so sightings often cluster near moisture sources.
Follow the preparation steps we provide so the team can access the areas where silverfish are active. Clear items from targeted zones where possible, and make sure damp or enclosed areas are accessible for inspection and treatment.
It is possible to see activity briefly as the situation changes. What matters is whether sightings reduce over time and whether you still have damp or residue conditions that silverfish rely on, which our aftercare guidance helps address.
The most helpful approach is reducing the conditions that support silverfish, especially moisture and food residues. Our after-visit guidance focuses on cleaning and moisture control so silverfish have fewer reasons to remain in the same areas.
We treat the likely harbourage areas, not only the insects you happen to spot. Because silverfish often rest in concealed gaps and edges, an inspection-led approach helps target where they actually hide.
