  3. If you have silverfish, you have a moisture problem in your house. I am not sure about the woodlice, but silverfish go where there is dampness. You are going to want to find the source of the moisture in your house. It is possible that you have a rot issue and need extensive repair work. I would have a licensed inspector come and take a look. It may save your house from serious damage.

    Edit:  You may THINK you don't have damp problems, but silverfish like damp places. That's why I suggested an inspector. Inspectors have instruments that can check moisture levels in drywall and plaster. You may have a leak behind a wall in the bathroom, or somewhere else you can't see it. It is possible that the pipes behind the wall are excessively sweating and dripping. If it keeps leaking, eventually it will show itself, but by that time you will have very EXPENSIVE repair work to do.

  4. Set them on fire and let that be a lesson to the rest of them!

  5. you sweep them up after they die

  6. i have those two! they're so gross!

  7. There are herbicides for woodlice but not silverfish

  8. Get rid of your damp problem and they'll go x*x

  9. i have heard that ceder wood will keep them out of closets & all. we have them in ours & we havent had a problem with them. we have boxes in our cloets. this is where they usely like to hang out at. pluse you will get a good smelling closet :-)
