Pest of The Month- Silverfish

Silverfish come indoors as the weather gets cooler to lay their eggs, seeking warmth and food. They can lay up to 60 eggs a day! Silverfish eat their way through books, photographs and plaster and can cause extensive damage. You may find silverfish in dark, damp and humid areas such as attics, basements and bathrooms. They eat both starch and cellulose, also feeding on human debris like dead skin and hair. If you notice one or two in your home, contact your pest control expert, EcoTech Pest Control 631-868-7023, as it can quickly become an infestation.
