You can also put lavender bags in every corner of the house. To make the aroma even more intense, add a few drops of essential oil. A couple of days will be enough to no longer see these annoying insects.

The starch in the oat flakes will attract the insects, which will climb onto the jar to enter, but from which they will no longer be able to escape, sliding on the glass.

If you can locate a silverfish nest, simply pour a little rubbing alcohol on it to kill it.

Remember that silverfish like humid places, so if possible, put some baking soda in a jar so it can absorb some moisture.
