Ever wondered why silverfish seem to love your bathroom? 👀
It’s not just the water.
Silverfish thrive in **warm, humid and dark environments** — which makes bathrooms an ideal place for them to hide. They’re also attracted to materials commonly found around the home, including:
💧 **Humidity & moisture** – damp areas give them the conditions they need to thrive.
📦 **Cardboard** – they can feed on starches found in packaging and toilet roll tubes.
📄 **Paper** – books, magazines and other paper-based materials can become a food source.
👕 **Stored clothes & towels** – dark, undisturbed cupboards and storage areas give them plenty of places to hide.
Seeing one occasionally might not seem like a big deal, but if they keep appearing, it could be a sign they’ve found the perfect conditions to stick around.
DMC Collective can help identify the source, treat the problem and help keep them from coming back.
