Clothes Moth Control

 

Clothes moths are notorious for feeding on natural fibers such as wool, silk, fur, and cotton. They can cause severe damage to clothing, carpets, and upholstered furniture, often going undetected until the damage is done. At Pestrid, we target both adult moths and their larvae, which are the true culprits behind fabric damage.

 

Why Do Clothes Moths Infest Your Home?

 

Clothes moths are attracted to natural fibers and thrive in dark, undisturbed areas like closets, basements, or storage boxes. Here’s why you might have a clothes moth infestation:

  • Natural Fibers: Clothing, carpets, or furniture made of wool, silk, and cotton are prime targets for clothes moth larvae, as they provide a rich food source.
  • Undisturbed Areas: Clothes moths prefer dark, undisturbed areas where they can lay eggs, such as in closets, attics, or storage chests that are not frequently used.
  • Stored Fabrics: Items that are stored away for long periods, such as winter coats or heirloom garments, are especially vulnerable to moth damage.
  •  

Signs of a Clothes Moth Infestation

  • Holes in Fabric: Small holes in clothing, carpets, or upholstery are a sign of clothes moth larvae feeding.
  • Webbing or Silk Threads: You may notice webbing on infested fabrics or in areas where moths are hiding, such as in the corners of closets or storage boxes.
  • Shed Larval Skins: Clothes moth larvae shed their skins as they grow, leaving behind small, whitish skins near damaged fabrics.
  • Adult Moths: Adult clothes moths are small, pale, and rarely fly around bright lights. They’re often found in dark, quiet areas like closets.
 

Our Clothes Moth Control Process

 
  1. Inspection: We conduct a thorough inspection of your home to locate moth infestations and identify vulnerable areas, such as closets and fabric storage.
  2. Targeted Treatment: We use safe, effective treatments to eliminate both adult moths and larvae. Our treatments penetrate deep into fabrics and carpets, where moth larvae typically feed.
  3. Fabric Protection: We offer advice on how to store clothing and fabric items to prevent future infestations, including the use of airtight containers and moth repellents.
  4. Prevention & Monitoring: We provide tips on reducing moth-friendly environments, such as improving ventilation and regularly cleaning storage areas. We can also install pheromone traps to monitor for moth activity.

 


Pantry Moth Control

 

Pantry moths, such as Indian meal moths, can contaminate food products and cause damage to stored grains, cereals, nuts, and dried goods. Once inside your pantry, they can quickly spread and ruin food items. Pestrid offers fast and effective pantry moth control to protect your food storage and prevent future infestations.

 

Why Do Pantry Moths Infest Your Home?

 

Pantry moths are attracted to stored food products, especially grains, cereals, and dried goods. They often enter homes through infested products from the store or through gaps and cracks in packaging. Here’s why you might have a pantry moth problem:

  • Contaminated Food Products: Pantry moths often enter homes in food packaging from grocery stores, especially bulk grains, cereals, or pet food.
  • Unsealed Food: Moths can easily enter unsealed food containers or loosely packaged goods, laying eggs in or near the food source.
  • Warm Storage Areas: Pantry moths thrive in warm, dry environments like pantries or cupboards where food is stored.
 

Signs of a Pantry Moth Infestation

 
  • Moths in the Pantry: You may notice small moths flying around your kitchen or pantry, especially near stored food items.
  • Webbing in Food: Pantry moth larvae produce webbing, which can be found in food packages, containers, or storage areas.
  • Damaged Food Packaging: Infested food may have small holes in packaging or seem clumped together due to larvae activity.
 

Our Pantry Moth Control Process

 
  1. Inspection: We inspect your pantry and food storage areas to identify infested food products and locate the source of the infestation.
  2. Removal of Infested Items: We advise on safely disposing of contaminated food and thoroughly cleaning your pantry to remove eggs, larvae, and adult moths.
  3. Treatment: We apply safe treatments to your pantry, focusing on eliminating adult moths, larvae, and eggs to prevent reinfestation.
  4. Prevention Tips: We provide recommendations for sealing food in airtight containers, cleaning storage areas regularly, and using moth traps to monitor for future activity.
