Moth Pest Control

When we consider pests, we consider cockroaches, flies, spiders or rodents however, we do not think of moths. We see those small cousins of butterflies as innocent creatures roaming around, however, for some, they are as detrimental as other pests.

These small cousins of butterflies are harmless creatures but seeing a huge number of these hovering in your house or neighbouring place is surely something you need to think about twice. Adult moth, in fact, don’t inflict danger but their younglings – their larvae feed on protein-rich (keratin) materials like wool, silk and cotton. Hence, items made of these natural materials are at risk for damages.

The existence of these little cousins of butterflies signals wary and alert to families. The adult moth is not really harmless except for their younglings – the larvae. Moth larvae are capable of damaging household properties which are naturally made from wool, cotton and silk.

Getting rid of moths require critical methods because removing them can be rather tough. No amount of pesticides or insecticides can guarantee absolute riddance of their infestation. Hence, most homeowners seek assistance from licensed pest control professionals.

How serious is a moth infestation?

As aforementioned, households and businesses aren’t the only ones who are pestered by moth infestation. Even agricultural and environmental communities are affected if infestation is not managed. That’s the reason it is suggested to take immediate action.

As above, not only households and businesses are pestered by moths, even agricultural and environmental communities experience their anger. An infestation caused by two kinds of moths, namely the cloth and pantry moths can bring extensive damages to your items and property. Hence, immediate action must be taken to control the infestation. If left unidentified and source of infestation is not found, over a period of time, a large infestation could be too costly. Like we said, moth larvae feed on whatever natural materials they can find.

Getting Rid of Moths

Like some other infestations, the presence of moths can be baffling. Moths can harm things which are made of cotton, fleece and silk, then, our clothes and whatever other materials that are utilised in our houses are in danger.

There are various types of moth species, around 160,000 and a high number of it are yet to be identified. Most moths are nocturnal, yet there are also which are active during dusk and daytime.

To get rid of moth infestation, the first step is to take immediate action. How? By being alert to tell-tale signs of moth infestation:

• Presence of moth larvae – they could be found mostly in cupboards, wardrobes, drawers and cabinets. They are caterpillar-like in appearance and overall creamy-white in color. They are a 1/2 inch long and can develop to full maturity approximately from one month up to 2 years.
• Silken tubes or cases – these are pills or homes of moth larvae wherein they reside and those are commonly found in garments, carpets or in the back of furniture.
• Adult moths – they are rarely seen flying but many adult moths are seen crawling.

DIY methods to prevent moth infestation will just give disappointing results since not all pesticides or insecticides can completely kill moths. Hence, homeowners seek help from professionals in managing the infestation.
