Hello all, so my home is 2 years old after having been completely renovated, and we've been having a bit of a silverfish problem in the past year or so. We don't have crumbs or food scattered around, everything is kept in lidded containers, we vacuum regularly, and we have dehumidifiers constantly running at 50% year - round.
I keep reading that silverfish need humidity to survive, but they keep appearing despite the low RH in our flat. I also read that they don't like garlic, but several times now I've found them hiding literally inside my terracotta garlic keeper! What's wrong with these silverfish!? Are they a new sub - species that likes low humidity and garlic??
I've also tried setting bait traps with masking tape wrapped jars and bits of bread inside to no avail.
Please help :)
