Silverfish fight in homes and flats / Remove



Silverfish are not very popular among people, although they are generally considered beneficial. However, they have apartments or houses selected for their own habitat, so should the reasons for their occurrence are found and eliminated. Otherwise the danger is that you have to expect a few months later with a new volume.
Read this article, which causes homely trigger the emergence of silverfish and what you can do against these unwelcome guests.


What are silverfish ?

Silverfish are insects - they belong to the order of fish. They owe their name to their appearance, because they have a streamlined, silvery body with a length of about 1 cm.

An adult silverfish can be two to eight years old. The metallic luster of their silvery scales they developed after its third moult. The eighth molt they are sexually mature.
The female lays from 20 to 100 eggs, usually in cracks or gaps, because these animals are very sensitive to light.


Conditions conducive for silverfish

Silverfish are nocturnal. They love the darkness and are therefore to be found in cellars or pantries.

For their propagation, they need a temperature between 25 and 30 degrees with a relative (temporal) humidity of 80 to 90%. They survive, but even at cooler temperatures.

Your favorite foods are carbohydrates such as starchy materials (potatoes) and sugar. Therefore, they are sometimes called sugar guest. But that's not all. According to Wikipedia, they eat also of adhesives and glue, book bindings, paper, photos, dander, dust mites. Even before cotton, linen, silk, leather and synthetic fibers, they do not stop. Dead insects or their own off skin are also part of their diet.

Through their diet can silverfish holes in fabric, wallpaper books or bottle up or scrape. They are also able to survive for several months without food.


Occurrences in their homes

They will show up anywhere (and often only at night or in the dark come to light), where it is moist and warm, preferably in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, pantries. Since they have a very broad food spectrum, it may also be involved basements.

They also prefer areas where they can hide during the day in cracks and crevices, such as under or behind the fridge, in floor tiles or joints (if these cracks), under loose wallpaper, abrasives or baseboards.


Silverfish are beneficial or harmful ?

In principle, it is useful animals because they do not clean their surroundings. The animals themselves are not regarded as disease carriers, but are completely harmless to humans (as of May 2012). Therefore, according to scientific view of combat is not necessary, not even in terms of hygiene.

The occurrence of silverfish may (but need not) indicate that, in certain living spaces are molds, especially if it is a large number.

They feed on mold, but are not the cause! Therefore, anyone who silverfish in his apartment frequently observed, see exactly if and where it is damp or moldy.

In addition to any scuffing a sporadic occurrence of silverfish is classified as harmless. Heaped in dimensions however, the causes are removed.

How can one fight removed silverfish ?

Regularly clean up

Since feed the animals including dust mites, dander and hair, it is recommended especially in places of their occurrence, to ensure absolute cleanliness. In order to take them away an essential nutrients. Mix in the cleaning water vinegar or lemon extract. This did not smell like the animals.

Inventories close

The animals are in the kitchen at home, you should close your supplies well. However bags with stickers are not a good idea. Use well-closed container, such as glass or cans.

Ventilate

Especially in bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms should be provided not only by the showering, cooking or washing ensure that humidity can deduct. If it is a windowless room, might help a swipe when the windows of other rooms and doors are left open. But it is advisable to think about installing a fan (or a repair ;-)). The investment is worth it in any case, because the silverfish are not the problem, but the mold or damp spots. Wet areas should generally be aired several times a day.

Cracks and crevices close

Depending on where the animals have taken up their quarters in your home, you should crack and crevice - close up - for example, with spackle or joint cement. Lose wallpapers must again be glued, fixed abrasives and cover strips or renewed, grouted cracks and crevices or smeared etc.

Who takes the silverfish their habitat, they will permanently loose. With a larger and more regular occurrence, there are additional methods to get rid of them promptly and efficiently.

How does one go short silverfish ?

The only known enemy of Silverfish is the common earwig. Spiders are only limited enemies, for they have with their hunting in the dark only moderate success. Since there is hardly a person who wants to use earwigs, can fall back on proven home remedies.

Potato method

On a piece of paper 1-2 grated potatoes. Animals love this food and will crawl under the potato particles. Wait a few hours or a day, then you can take the animals out and dismissed.

The same works with a halved potato, which is interpreted. Here, too, collect the animals and can be taken outside. This method has been tested several times, but only recommended if it is a moderate number of silverfish.

The potato method is likely to be next fragrance methods animal friendly method, provided the animals are then taken outside and left alive. They have earned it.

As an alternative to potato lure course, you can also use sugar or honey.

Gypsum method

Spread a wet cotton cloth with plaster. There, too, collect the animals and can be disposed of outside.

Sugar and baking powder

Mix the sugar and baking powder and add this mixture 1:1 in cracks and crevices. The baking soda will swell by the moisture and helps not only against ants. This method is very sustainable and long lasting effect.

Fragrances used
Lavender or lemon oil do not like the animals. Perfuming the appropriate places.
A word on another scent method "Salmiakwasser": It is recommended more often and seems to work very well. It is situated just in the affected areas. But ammonia is also not safe for humans, therefore, rather, other methods may be used.

Treat runoff

Drains are always wet. If you suspect that reside there, the animals, pour several times a day in hot water and then seal them. Keep closed at night suspicious outflows.

Pesticides from the shop

Who with the success of the home remedies can not be satisfied, of course, acquire various resources at the hardware store or specialty stores.

You can buy bait boxes whose contents kills the greedy eating silverfish and sometimes wiping out their entire brood, as the bait to be carried into the nest.

Recommended are biological bait boxes. Products based on silica or plankton dry, although the insects but are toxic to humans, children and pets desired. Avoid - your family and to protect the environment - chemical insecticide bait boxes or even sprays. Because then you're taking a totally unnecessary health risk. However, this applies generally for insect control.

Silverfish fight - which really helps!

Silverfish fight - which really helps!


Silverfish - one wonders where do the little creatures, for even in new buildings, they appear after a short time. Silverfish love warm and humid, so are spaces such as basements, boiler room, laundry room and bathroom especially affected. But how can you fight them permanently?

The remedies and home remedies that are presented on many websites do, often one thing: sell silver fish from one place, kill them or lure. A halved potato placed on a match, attracts the silverfish, because they feed off the intensity. In order to breed, they are not, then they have to get though it. (Poison) bait come for me to antagonize the silverfish of the question. You can sell silver fish probably limited: the bathroom to the kitchen and the basement into the hall - or while hiking silverfish from otherwise?

My ultimate advice for home improvement: take the animal's livelihood: moist warm dark corners.

Especially in old buildings that is of course difficult - because there are numerous crevices and hiding places. Where possible, such as in new buildings and newly renovated rooms, you should make sure the walls do not fully observed. Behind it likes to keep silverfish - also collects moisture here, possibly dust, dander and hair - great: for silverfish. Adequate ventilation and to provide more light: on windows and let in sun!

Spreads are not often Luftzugstopper. These can be directly integrated into the door when the door is a kind of rubber seal is extended toward the ground, so no draft goes through the door. Even so, you can stop the migration of fishes and rooms keep permanently silver fish-free.

Silverfish do not hurt your health, are just unpleasant and destructive to your property

Silverfish do not hurt your health, are just unpleasant and destructive to your property


Silverfish do not hurt your health, are just unpleasant and destructive to your property

Silverfish are not really a threat to health, so who cares if you have them at home?

Let me give you a couple of reasons you do not want these insects in your world.

They live in most kitchens any building, occupied or not, and the favor and bathrooms, where the atmosphere is warm and humid.

  • The silverfish eat materials that contain high levels of starch. This includes dextrin, which is located in the glue, paper, images, hair, sugar and cereals.
  • Silverfish are fast and hard to catch.
  • Are difficult to control, and to get rid of.
  • I am a native of the northern continent, and found all over the world.
  • Sometimes you will find them in your bed.
  • Silverfish are unpleasant creatures.
  • Live an average of two years, and sometimes up to three years.
  • The female lays one-to-four eggs per day.

Since they eat dextrin will show up in your cereal at times, but that does not really threaten the health as well as your possessions. A large population can destroy your library eat the glue that binds the books together, and when the glue is gone begin on the card.

Silverfish hide during the day, mostly within walls or behind furniture and household appliances where it is dark. They are most active at night.

As the female lays her eggs every so many months, the population grows rapidly if left untreated. The silverfish is difficult to control because of rapid population growth, the rate of insects, and the fact that pesticides only kill the adults. When the nest is inside walls in the young hatching care is an even more difficult task due to the difficulty in obtaining the chemicals in the correct positions.

These bugs do not normally bother you, unless you are moving in your bedroom and crawl through you as you lie in bed at night, but they are ugly bugs. Guests may question your ability to clean when they see these creatures roam around your walls.

Since silverfish prefer (and require) wetlands for survival, be sure to eliminate any leaks and other sources of moisture.

Search pheromone traps designed to capture silverfish. These are toxic so be sure to put them out of reach of children and pets. These traps still will not affect the eggs, but for catching insects live is to reduce the number of females laying eggs.

The best treatment I know of is wipe the nesting area with chemical powders.

Start with a spray every couple of days to kill all the eggs a week or more old. Eggs take 2-3 weeks to hatch, so some of the eggs there are up to three weeks. Extend the spray schedule out to once a week for two times, then spray a month later. Your problem should disappear. If not, start the process of dusting again, and continue this process until you see silverfish no more.

Find the area in which the activity is more silverfish. Usually is close to a wall, and the nest is more likely that the inner wall. You want to spray the powder inside the wall in such a way that it creates a cloud of powder in the cavity of the walls. Just download a lot of dust on the floor gets only the bugs that actually crawl through the pile, getting dust on their feet as they walk through. Spreading a cloud in the wall puts the chemical in the air, and inhale as they breathe.

Persistence is the key to the control of these bugs, as in many of our successes in life.

If you want to know if any silverfish have been crawling around your dishes or cutlery at night while you sleep, set up a silverfish trap.
