Question: What are Silverfish and why do I have them?

Answer: Silverfish are insects that are silver or gray colored, wingless, have two long antennae protruding from their head and three long bristles attached to the rear of their body.

Silverfish live in both outdoor and indoor areas where moisture and high levels of humidity occur. Indoors, these nocturnal insects are most often found in the kitchen, basement and bathroom.
