The most common textile moth is the Common Clothes Moth (Tineola bisselliella). There is however a different species (with clear differences) which too can cause destruction to any textiles.
Moths may seem harmless at first glance, but they can quickly become a serious nuisance in homes and businesses. From damaging clothes, carpets, and upholstery to contaminating stored food products, a moth infestation can cause significant disruption and costly damage if left untreated. At Total Pest Control, we provide professional moth pest control services tailored to effectively eliminate infestations and prevent future problems. With expert technicians and proven treatments, our team helps protect your property and restore peace of mind.
Signs Of A Textile Moth Problem
Identifying the early signs of a textile moth infestation is key to protecting your property from extensive damage. Textile moths, such as clothes moths and carpet moths, feed on natural fibres causing costly destruction if left unchecked. If you spot any of the following signs, it’s important to seek professional moth pest control services promptly. An experienced moth exterminator can deliver effective moth treatment solutions to eliminate the problem at its source.
Common signs of a textile moth infestation include:
- Small, irregular holes in clothing, carpets, or upholstery
- Silky tunnels or cases left behind on fabrics or in hidden areas
- Shed larval skins or powdery droppings near infested items
- Adult moths flying in dark, undisturbed spaces such as wardrobes or under furniture
- A musty or unpleasant odour around stored fabrics
- Visible larvae (small, creamy-white caterpillars) on textiles
Early detection and professional moth pest control intervention are crucial to eradicating the problem.
Problems Associated With Carpet Moths
Carpet moths can cause serious damage if a moth infestation is not addressed quickly. These pests feed on natural fibres such as wool and silk, leading to bald patches, threadbare areas, and weakened fabric in carpets, rugs, and other soft furnishings. Without professional moth pest control, the problem can spread throughout your property, resulting in costly repairs or replacements. Our moth pest control services ensure your home is protected.
How To Get Rid Of Carpet Moths
If there is a serious moth infestation present in a residential or commercial property, a residual spray and fogging are the only viable moth treatments. The lifespan of moths means that it is necessary to spray the whole property to ensure that the problem does not resurface.
At Total Pest Control, as part of our moth pest control services our experienced team will provide:
- A friendly, fully-trained local technician, who has the knowledge and expertise to precisely identify the cause of your moth problem and offer effective moth treatments accordingly.
