Silverfish Control
Small, silver, and quietly destructive to paper and fabric.
Silverfish thrive in dark, humid areas and feed on paper, cardboard, wallpaper paste and natural fibres. They're often discovered in bookcases, storage boxes and roof voids — usually well after some damage has already occurred.
