What are Silverfish?

They have voracious feeding habits, oftentimes ruining papers, clothing and wallpaper.

They love to nestle moist areas where temperature is favourable, relatively humid between 75% and 95%.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!
