They work

The traps are extremely sticky, but for some reason, the bottom panel warps up once it’s assembled, so that the floor of the trap is no longer flush with the ground. Silverfish simply go under the trap instead of into it. I picked one up and a silverfish scuttled out from under it. I picked up another trap and the bottom had bowed so far upward that it was stuck to the top of the trap. After four days in a kitchen infested enough to make me buy these traps, only one of the three traps had caught a single silverfish. It’s just not well-designed. We had a different kind of silverfish trap previously that worked much better. Sadly, I can’t find those anymore.

The product doesn’t claim it attracts silverfish and other bugs, and it doesn’t. You do have to place them in a location that sees bug traffic. After separating two traps along the perforated line I spend maybe a minute taking the warp out of the base plus pre folding the sides and getting the “hook” to fit in the “slot “ on the opposite side of the top section, all before removing the “wax paper “ from the adhesive. The adhesive material is super sticky and if you accidentally touch it to the top of the trap you’ll never get it unstuck. Same if you accidentally step on it after placing it on the floor. The bases are always warped from the surface tension of the adhesive, so the base will have an arc shape which doesn’t touch the floor unless you bend the base slightly in the opposite direction before exposing the adhesive. There is a slight chemical smell from the adhesive when your nose is close during setup, but it’s less noticeable when placed on the floor and goes away in a couple days. I think they are useful to use for trapping, along with chemical insecticide outside to kill/repel bugs.

Truthfully ..... next time I'll just put some 2 sided tape on cardboard. Set up 5 traps ..... got 1 silverfish & the others are empty. Still squashing them around basement though!UPDATE - was contacted by seller & offered full refund, so A+ for customer service!

These silverfish traps work great! They’re easy to set up, and the natural bait attractant does its job. Within days, I noticed a significant reduction in silverfish and other crawling insects. The 20-pack provides plenty of coverage for the house. Highly recommend!

Worked the first night out of the package.

I had high hopes that these would solve my silverfish problem, however, the silverfish avoided the product even though I placed them in the corners of the baseboards in a toilet room where I would see the silverfish emerge from under the baseboard. They would go around the trap and the sticky side did not sit flat on the floor-it bowed up in the center. I have killed far more manually than the trap has caught. The trap did catch a centipede that I never saw, so that was a very good thing. I really wish I could say it solved the problem, but unfortunately it did not. I suppose it is a minor help and hopefully others have much better luck.Update: 5 stars to Rimbaworks Seller for EcoPest. They contacted me and offered a full refund since the product did not solve my problem. They obviously care about customer satisfaction, which is getting harder to find these days.
