The pests will enter homes through foundation cracks, torn screens, or gaps around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish indoors.

Silverfish don’t transmit diseases, but the pests may trigger allergies in some people and additional damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease because of their strange appearance.
