Moth Pest Control

When we consider pests, we think about cockroaches, flies, rodents or spiders but might not consider moths. We see these little cousins of butterflies as benign creatures roaming around, however, for some, they can be destructive just like others.

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

The presence of those 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 possessions that are naturally made from wool, cotton and silk.

Getting rid of these requires deliberate methods which are usually done by licensed pest control specialists. No other generic pesticide or insecticide can completely give 100 percent result that infestation is controlled or eliminated. Hence, it requires the knowledge and pest technologies of specialists. So if you’re caught in limbo with moth infestation, we suggest that you call the nearest pest management experts in town.

How serious is a moth infestation?

It is important that you need to identify first the kind of species that invade your home. It is quite hard to implement treatment management for the infestation if we cannot identify the type of moth nestling locally.

As aforementioned, 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 unknown and source of infestation is not found, over a time period, a large infestation can be too costly. Like we said, moth larvae feed on whatever natural materials they could find.

Getting Rid of Moths

Like some other infestations, the presence of moths can be baffling. Moths can damage things which are made of cotton, fleece and silk, subsequently, our garments and whatever other materials that are utilised in our homes 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 you will find also which are active during dusk and daytime.

To eliminate moth infestation, the first step is to take immediate action. How? By being watchful of indications of a moth infestation:

• Presence of maggots or larvae – these can be found in cupboards, wardrobes and drawers. They are creamy-white in color and are caterpillar-like in appearance. The are about 1/2 inch long and they can develop into moths roughly from one month up to 2 decades.
• Silken tubes or cases – these are capsules or homes of moth larvae where they reside and these are generally found in clothes, carpets or at the back of furniture.
• Adult moths – they’re hardly ever visible flying however most adult moths are seen creeping.

Performing a DIY technique to dispose of they will not 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 assistance of bug experts for they will help survey the level of infestation, identify the species and recommend the treatment.
