Why Choose Us?
Spotting the Signs of a Moth Infestation
Are you worried you might have a moth problem? It's not always obvious until the damage is done. Keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs:
- Visible Moths: You might see small, fluttering moths, often scurrying away when disturbed, particularly in wardrobes, drawers, or pantries. Clothes moths tend to run rather than fly.
- Damage to Fabrics: Irregular holes in clothes, carpets, curtains, or upholstery are a strong indicator. This is often caused by the moth larvae, not the adult moths themselves.
- Larvae or Cocoons: Small, worm-like larvae or silk cocoons (sometimes resembling grains of rice or tiny tubes) on fabrics or in corners of cupboards are definite proof of an active infestation.
- Frass: Tiny, sand-like droppings (excrement) that often match the colour of the fabric they are eating.
Knowing what to look for helps us pinpoint the problem effectively, so if you notice any of these signs, don't delay – call us.

Who We Are
Why Professional Moth Treatment is Your Best Solution
Many people try DIY moth treatments first, but these often fall short. Moths, especially their larvae and eggs, are incredibly resilient and can hide in hard-to-reach places. Off-the-shelf products usually only treat adult moths, leaving the next generation to emerge and continue the cycle. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified technicians use professional-grade insecticides and advanced techniques that target all life stages of the moth, from egg to adult. This ensures a comprehensive eradication. As BPCA affiliated members, we adhere to the highest industry standards, giving you peace of mind that your home or business in Totnes is in expert hands. We get to the root of the problem for lasting results.
