Silverfish, ants and bugs can be "killed" with Diatomaceous Earth.
WTF is Diatomaceous Earth, YUP, I had the same reaction.

TLDR; it's a powder that will cause insects to die because the powder will dry their body (dehydrate).

Get a brush; small one; like a calligraphy brush and just spread it. (Has to be at a dry place; and BTW, it's human / pets friendly)
It does NOT kill the bug INSTANTLY, it has to be in contact with the bug, and it'll dry it slowly. You want it to be killed instantly, you're looking at RAID.

Sprinkle a bit; spread with brush around all corners and floor boards, they will go away in a few days. Repeat every few days if needed.


Where to get it? Home hardwave, they have different types, they ALL do the same shit. Get the bottle that says silver fish (blue in color)
and you're fine.

YOU DO NOT NEED 4 lbs of it. That 200 g bottle is more than enough.
