Moth and carpet beetle control
Professional moth and carpet beetle control for homes, landlords and businesses, with clear advice and a quotation before any work starts.
Clothes moth and carpet beetle larvae feed on natural fibres such as wool, silk, fur and feathers. The damage often goes unnoticed until holes appear in clothes, rugs or carpets, usually in dark, undisturbed areas.
We identify which insect is causing the damage and treat the affected areas to stop further losses.
Signs to look out for
- Holes in woollen clothing, rugs or carpets, often under furniture
- Small, slow-flying moths that avoid light
- Woolly bear larvae or shed larval skins
- Fine silk tubes or webbing on fabrics
How we deal with it
Survey
We confirm the species and find the main areas of activity.
Treatment
We treat carpets, edges and voids with a suitable professional insecticide.
Monitoring and advice
We can use pheromone monitors and advise on cleaning and storing fabrics.
Vacuum thoroughly, especially at carpet edges and under furniture, and launder or dry clean affected clothing before our visit.
Questions about moth and carpet beetle control
Are moth traps enough?
Pheromone traps help to monitor activity but usually do not solve an established infestation on their own.
