Does any one know how to get rid of silverfish without chemicals? Any help would be appreciated.

If you choose anything with diatomaceous earth, good idea to order food grade only. Inexpensive. Safe. I get mine from www.earthworkshealth.com. The list of many applications is very interesting. My house will never be without DE.
I just read that you can prevent them from going in cabinets by laying clove in the cabinets, that they don't like that at all. By all means, seal and store your cereal and other dry goods in ziplock bags. If you can access the wet part of your house that they were originally drawn to, get the cause of the dampness fixed and get a dehumidifier in there to dry it out. They like damp dark places and once you dry out their hiding places; they won't come back!
