01822 668338Spotting the Signs of a Moth Problem
Moths are often masters of disguise, making their presence known only once damage has occurred. Keep an eye out for these key indicators:
- Small holes in fabrics: Especially wool, silk, cashmere, and synthetic blends. This is a classic sign of clothes moths.
- Webbing or cocoons: Look for silken tunnels or cases in dark, undisturbed areas like wardrobes, under furniture, or in food cupboards.
- Larvae (caterpillars): These are the destructive stage of the moth. They might be small and creamy white, often found crawling on damaged items.
- Adult moths: While adult moths don't eat fabrics or food, their presence, particularly if you see them frequently, indicates an active infestation. Food moths might be seen flying around kitchen cupboards.
- Shed skins: As moth larvae grow, they shed their skins, which can be found near infested materials.

Successfully eliminating moths requires more than just spraying an off-the-shelf product. Our experienced technicians follow a meticulous process to ensure effective moth control:
- Thorough Survey: We'll conduct a detailed inspection of your property in Newton Abbot to identify the specific moth species, locate all harbourage points, and assess the extent of the infestation.

For food moths, we focus on identifying and removing contaminated food sources.
