Where are all the silverfish coming from? You may live in an older house or a brand new building and the silverfish are climbing the walls any time of the year. Latest data points to local schools that harbor the insects and use your children as transportation. Schools and school boards do not want pest control companies walking their halls and having to explain to the parents that they had an infestation. Silverfish have destructive feeding habits ruining papers, clothing and wallpaper. Usually found in dark, damp areas around paper and linen sources, silverfish infestations can be seen in kitchens, laundry rooms, bathrooms, attics and crawl spaces. They can live in almost any type of environment but nymphs develop quickly in humid areas.
