Protect Your Home or Business from Fabric & Pantry Moths
At Pestocatch, we specialise in professional moth control across London, helping homeowners, retailers, and commercial clients eliminate moth infestations quickly and effectively. Whether you’re dealing with clothes moths destroying textiles or pantry moths contaminating food supplies, our experts provide targeted treatments to remove moths at every stage of their life cycle.
Signs of a moth infestation in your London home include:
Holes in clothes or carpets, especially those made of wool.
Sightings of adult moths, especially in dark, undisturbed areas.
Larvae or silken webbing in wardrobes, drawers, or under furniture.
Damage becomes visible when moving furniture or opening long-stored clothes.
The actual damage is caused by moth larvae, not the adults. Carpet beetles may cause similar damage but are more commonly found in nests, stored grains, or dead animals.
If ignored:
Moths can cause serious and costly damage to clothing, carpets, and furniture.
Infestations spread quickly, becoming harder and more expensive to treat.
Declutter affected areas.
Vacuum carpets and floors thoroughly.
Move furniture away from walls.
Remove food if infestation is in pantry—dispose of it outside your home.
Empty cupboards to prepare for spraying.
Visit 1:
Inspection and targeted insecticide spray on carpets.
Use of a fumigation machine to apply residual insecticide.
Set up moth traps to monitor activity.
Visit 2:
Apply a different, long-lasting insecticide for extended protection.
Receive a written report after each visit.
In severe cases, a 3rd visit might be needed. You can book it at a discounted rate and extend your guarantee for up to 3 months.
Pest control technicians wear protective gear.
You must vacate the property (with pets) during treatment.
Wait at least 3 hours before re-entering.
Do not vacuum or clean treated areas for at least 14 days.
Once dead insects stop appearing, do a deep vacuum everywhere—especially in:
Undisturbed spots
Under furniture
Closets and wardrobes
Baseboards, cracks, and crevices
Avoid storing wool items in untreated spaces (like lofts or storage bags).
Ruined clothes are probably what’s associated most moth infestations and while that’s certainly a real problem, the fact is, different moths can damage different types of material including something as tough as leather. So know how to spot a moth problem and then contact us so we can get them before your stuff is gone.
– Look for silk tubes or cases where larvae can grow.
– Watch for small maggot-like creatures. This is the moth larvae.
– Check for silky, moth cocoons.
– Look for flying adult moths. They don’t eat your fabric but they make the larvae that do.
