Silverfish are one of the most common pests around Idaho. While they don’t typically bite or sting, they can be a nuisance. Here are some of the problems silverfish bring to Boise area homes.
- Damage to Personal Items: Silverfish can eat through many materials, including paper, clothing, upholstery, and stored food. They can also eat glue from wallpaper, book bindings, carpets, curtains, and furniture coverings. Signs of damage include holes, etchings, notches, and yellow stains.
- Contaminated Food: Silverfish can leave droppings in food containers, contaminating the food. If you see silverfish in or near food, you should throw it away.
- Allergies: While they don’t spread diseases, silverfish can trigger allergies in some people.

How Do We Exterminate Silverfish?
Our technicians know a lot about silverfish infestations. We’ve applied silverfish removal treatments to hundreds of homes in Meridian, Eagle, and around the Boise area. We know how to spot the signs of silverfish immediately and where to find the source of the infestation. We will visit your home to search for:
- Possible infestation locations in the kitchen, bathroom, patio, and even in the walls.
- Signs of silverfish, such as droppings and shed skins or nests outside the home.
- Potential entry points for silverfish, including cracks in the walls and foundation, or trees overlapping the home.
We complete a full inspection to understand the extent of the problem.
We stop the infestation in its tracks by exterminating all traces of silverfish in your home. Our treatments are tough on insects, but safe for your family and pets. This is what you can expect on the day of treatment:

Silverfish can be found just about anywhere. They thrive inside and outside — in cold environments and hot ones. And they are located in nearly every corner of the planet, including Idaho.
There are only four species of silverfish found in the United States. Just two are found in Idaho. They are:
- Gray silverfish. Gray silverfish are known for their silvery-gray color and prefer dark, damp areas like basements, bathrooms, and kitchens.
- Firebrat. Although less common than the gray silverfish, firebrats can also be found in Idaho. They are similar in appearance to silverfish but have a mottled gray-brown coloration and prefer warmer, drier environments compared to silverfish.
You can find silverfish in your kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, yard, or even in the walls of your home. Our team of Boise-based pest technicians are experts in silverfish control. We know where silverfish like to hide and how to get rid of them quickly.
