Pest Control Silverfish Have you noticed bluish-silver coloured insect crawling in your kitchen or bathroom area? If yes, what you are seeing is a silverfish. These are nocturnal insects that thrive in dark and humid areas. Silverfish are usually seen in bathrooms, kitchens, cellars, lofts and utility rooms, etc. They hide during the day and come out during night time. They are attracted to fungi, mold and carbohydrates.
