I have an infestation of silverfish. How do can I get rid of them easily without noxious poisons?

MANAGEMENT To keep silverfish and firebrats away, keep basements, laundry rooms, and bathrooms, especially shower stalls, clean and dry. Plug or putty holes or spaces around pipes. Repair leaks and drips in plumbing.

Clean out closets periodically. Collections of magazines, papers, and books provide food for them. Occasionally, move books around in a bookcase.

Keep foods in containers with tight lids. There are several kinds of commercially available products that control silverfish or firebrats: household sprays containing various pyrethroids (such as bifenthrin, tetramethrin, phenothrin), dusts, boric acid powder, and foggers are labeled for control of these pests. Insecticides are not needed, however, for the control of a few solitary insects, and their use should be reserved for large infestations.

If an occasional stray firebrat or silverfish is observed, it can be killed easily with a rolled-up newspaper. * Granular and dust baits are available and can be very effective if ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
