>I got a terrific answer on this topic from Bob Haskins. He wrote a book called Silverfish >Control: How to Get Rid of Silverfish. Check it out at www.getridofsilverfish.com

Thanks for sharing those terrific answers. =(

The three main points are :

- getting rig of moist, having laundry in a room generates sufficient moist in the air for the bugs to survive)

- getting rid of their food. Store everything in plastic containers/boxes

- get rid of their hiding places, fix cracks and wallpaper.

You should also try keeping your kitchen and eating areas clean. Silverfish are scavengers and can live off of the crumbs you leave on the floor.

You need to change the conditions in your home so that it's no longer an ideal place for silverfish to live. Remove sources of food, reduce moisture, seal cracks and crevices. Easy said than done, but that will do it.
