The new silverfish trap combines long-term monitoring with effective, poison-free capture to offer pest controllers a professional-grade solution for both commercial and residential settings.

Designed for use in offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, homes, and other high-risk environments, the trap attracts common and long-tailed silverfish at all life stages.

The food-based, non-toxic lure remains effective for over 12 months, providing consistent monitoring with minimal maintenance. Its robust, waterproof casing is ideal for humid, high-risk areas like bathrooms, basements, and storerooms.

A discreet, modern design ensures the trap blends seamlessly into its surroundings, while its concealed catch area keeps captured insects out of sight, making it ideal for sensitive or high-footfall locations.

The trap's textured, sloped edges enable easy entry for silverfish, while the escape-proof internal mechanism ensures reliable capture. Its reusable construction helps reduce waste and cost, offering a sustainable, high-performance tool for ongoing pest management.

Claire Adams, global portfolio manager – insect durables at Pelsis Group, commented: “Silverfish infestations are a persistent issue, especially in humid areas with sensitive materials like paper and textiles.

“This trap delivers a reliable, poison-free solution that’s discreet, long-lasting, and reusable—ideal for pest controllers who need consistent performance across a variety of environments.

“The new silverfish trap is part of Pelsis Group’s commitment to providing pest professionals with smart, sustainable tools that meet the demands of modern pest control.”

Pelsis Group develops market-leading pest control and garden care solutions for commercial and retail customers worldwide.

The company employs more than 700 people across 15 sites in the UK, Europe, USA, and India, delivering cutting-edge pest management solutions to a global customer base.
