Moth Pest Control

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

Moths do not tend to contribute health risks but their infestation may be damaging to the environment. Why? This is due to the larvae that feed on protein (keratin) rich natural substances like wool, silk and cotton. Hence, products made from these items are a risk for damages.

Not only that, moths can deem to contribute problems to agricultural and environmental communities because they’re capable of doing damage to vegetation and forested areas.

Infestation control of these creatures requires deliberate procedures and these are largely done by licensed pest control professionals. Therefore, if you are experiencing such a scenario, it is a good initiative to call on your pest control experts.

How serious is a moth infestation?

As aforementioned, households and businesses aren’t the only ones that are pestered by moth infestation. Even agricultural and ecological communities are affected if infestation isn’t managed. That is why it is recommended to take immediate actions.

The seriousness of moth damage actually depends on the level of infestation. A large infestation in the home can be costly. Moth larvae feed to whatever substances they may find and the longer, you may not find where the infestation is, the more damage they can cause you. Make sure to check for signs of infestations in your area.

Getting Rid of Moths

Like any other infestation, the presence of moths may be rather frustrating. Moths can harm things that are made of cotton, wool and silk, therefore, our garments and other substances which may be used in our houses are in danger.

Moth infestation may cause pretty costly damage when not controlled. Cloth moths can damage clothing made entirely with wool, silk and cotton. Pantry moths, on the other hand, will feed on storage food including grains, dried vegetables, fruit, crackers, and etc,. making it unfit for consumption.

To eradicate moth infestation, step one is to take on the swift action. How? By being mindful of tell-tale signs and indicators of a moth infestation:

• Presence of maggots or larvae – these can be found in closets, wardrobes and drawers. They are creamy-white in color and are caterpillar-like in appearance. The are about 1/2 inch long and they could develop into moths roughly from 1 month up to 2 decades.
• Vacated silken tubes or pupa – later having gone through as a caterpillar, moth larvae encase themselves in silken tubes to liberate themselves and develop to full-maturing becoming adult moths. These capsules, vacated or not are usually found in the closet, carpets and back of the furniture.
• Adult moths – they are rarely seen flying but many adult moths are seen crawling.

Performing a DIY method to dispose of they won’t do any good. Additionally, utilising pesticides is not even fitting in treating the infestation. In this case, the best method to controlling and disposing of these pests is to bring in the guidance of bug experts for they’ll help survey the degree of infestation, identify the species and recommend the treatment.
