Controlling silverfish in bathrooms and homes

Silverfish are small, wingless insects with elongated, silvery bodies. They move quickly, are mainly active at night and often prefer warm, humid and dark environments.

Silverfish are commonly found in bathrooms, toilets, laundry rooms, basements and kitchens. During the day, they hide in cracks, joints, behind skirting boards and in other concealed areas.

Finding an occasional silverfish does not necessarily indicate poor hygiene. However, a large or recurring population may suggest favourable living conditions, including elevated humidity and numerous hiding places.

According to the product listing, NO PEST PEST DONE is intended for silverfish control. Treating suitable insect pathways and hiding places may help reduce the number of insects.

Silverfish or long-tailed silverfish – What is the difference?

Common silverfish

Common silverfish are frequently associated with humid rooms. Typical locations include bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms and basements. They prefer narrow hiding places and are usually active at night.

Long-tailed silverfish

Long-tailed silverfish are related to common silverfish but may also occur in comparatively dry living spaces. They can be found in living rooms, offices, hallways and areas containing books or paper materials.

Correct identification is important because these insects may prefer different environmental conditions. Whether PEST DONE is intended for a particular species must be checked against the original product label.

Which insects can NO PEST PEST DONE control?

In addition to silverfish, the supplier lists several other crawling insects as target organisms. These include:

• Silverfish: Frequently found in bathrooms and other humid rooms
• Related silverfish species: Suitability for long-tailed silverfish must be confirmed on the original label
• Carpet beetles: Including certain species from the dermestid beetle family
• Fur beetles: Pests whose larvae may damage textiles and other materials
• Cockroaches: Including household cockroaches mentioned in the product listing
• Ants: Also listed by the supplier as target insects
• Bed bugs: Mentioned by the supplier; infestations often require a comprehensive control strategy
• Other crawling insects: Where specifically permitted by the original product label

Important: The target organisms listed above are based on the supplier's description. The original product label determines the permitted applications and target species.

Cypermethrin 0.5% – Insecticidal active ingredient

Cypermethrin belongs to the group of synthetic pyrethroids. It affects nerve signal transmission in susceptible insects, particularly through its action on voltage-gated sodium channels.

According to the product listing, NO PEST PEST DONE contains 5 g of cypermethrin per kilogram of product. This corresponds to 0.5% or 5,000 ppm.

Sufficient exposure to the active ingredient may interfere with the normal functioning of the insect nervous system. Its effectiveness depends on the dose received, insect species and application conditions.

Geraniol 0.01% – Second active ingredient

In addition to cypermethrin, PEST DONE contains geraniol at 0.1 g/kg, corresponding to 0.01% or 100 ppm.

Geraniol is a chemical compound that also occurs naturally in certain essential oils. However, the fact that geraniol can be of natural origin does not mean that the finished insecticide is harmless to people, pets or the environment.

How does NO PEST PEST DONE work?

According to the supplier, the product provides contact and surface action. Insects may be affected through direct contact with the spray liquid or through contact with appropriately treated surfaces.

The supplier mentions possible initial effects after approximately 30 minutes and activity lasting up to 48 hours. These figures are supplier claims and do not guarantee complete elimination of an infestation within that period.

For more severe infestations, additional measures may be necessary, particularly reducing suitable hiding places, controlling humidity and monitoring insect activity.

Typical application areas around the home

Bathrooms and toilets

Bathrooms are among the most common places where silverfish are found. The insects hide in cracks, behind skirting boards and around pipe penetrations. Suitable areas may be treated in accordance with the product label.

Kitchens and storage rooms

Kitchens can also provide favourable conditions for crawling insects. Food, dishes, kitchen utensils and food-contact surfaces must be protected from contamination during treatment.

Basements and laundry rooms

Humidity, dark corners and numerous hiding places may encourage silverfish activity in basements and laundry rooms. In addition to suitable insect control, the source of excessive moisture should be investigated.

Storage areas and furniture surroundings

Crawling insects frequently hide behind furniture, in recesses and in areas that are rarely disturbed. Before treatment, check that the relevant surface is suitable for application of the product.

How to use NO PEST PEST DONE correctly

According to the supplier, the product is ready to use and does not require dilution. Before application, the spray bottle should be shaken as instructed on the product label.

The supplier provides the following application guidance:

1. Prepare the area: Remove people and pets from the area to be treated.
2. Protect food: Remove or protect food, pet food, dishes and other sensitive objects.
3. Locate insect activity: Identify typical insect pathways, cracks and hiding places.
4. Prepare the bottle: Shake the ready-to-use product according to the label.
5. Maintain the spray distance: The supplier specifies approximately 30 cm from the surface.
6. Follow the dosage: According to the supplier, use 10 ml of spray liquid per m² of treated surface.
7. Apply selectively: Spray only suitable surfaces and permitted treatment areas.
8. Leave the room: The supplier describes keeping the room closed for 2–3 hours after treatment.
9. Ventilate thoroughly: The supplier then recommends approximately 1 hour of ventilation.
10. Re-enter safely: Only after all prescribed waiting periods have elapsed and sufficient ventilation has been completed.
11. Monitor the results: Observe insect activity over the following days.
12. Repeat if necessary: Only where required and permitted by the original product label.

Note: The quantities, distances and waiting periods above are taken from the supplier's description. They must be checked against the original product label before use.

Dosage and theoretical coverage

The supplier specifies an application rate of 10 ml per m² of treated surface. Each spray is described as delivering approximately 0.5 ml of liquid.

• Contents: 500 ml
• Application rate: 10 ml/m²
• Calculated coverage: Up to 50 m² of treated surface
• Approximate number of sprays: 20 per m² at 0.5 ml per spray

The calculated coverage is a theoretical figure. Actual consumption depends on the spray mechanism, the surface and possible product losses. Do not exceed the application rate specified on the original label.

How to identify silverfish

• Silvery, shiny and elongated body
• Wingless insects with rapid movements
• Primarily nocturnal behaviour
• Preference for dark hiding places
• Frequent occurrence in humid rooms
• Hiding places in cracks, joints and behind skirting boards

Silverfish can be confused with related species. If infestations repeatedly occur outside typical humid environments, long-tailed silverfish should also be considered as a possible cause.

Reducing silverfish in the long term – Additional measures

An insecticide spray can help control insects already present. For longer-term results, it is often useful to improve the environmental conditions that allow the insects to thrive.

• Reduce humidity: Ventilate humid rooms regularly and adequately.
• Repair leaks: Check dripping pipes and other sources of moisture.
• Reduce hiding places: Seal suitable cracks and gaps where practical.
• Clean regularly: Remove dust and organic debris from hard-to-reach areas.
• Monitor activity: Record recurring locations where insects are found.
• Identify the species: Distinguish common silverfish from long-tailed silverfish where possible.
• Combine appropriate measures: Consider additional suitable control methods for persistent or severe infestations.
