Tall Victorian houses mean plenty of wardrobes, attic rooms and stored textiles. A quiet room is all moth larvae need, so we inspect where they hide.
A big Victorian villa often means several bedrooms, a box room and an attic, and not all of them are used daily. That is where moths settle. Carrington houses near Mansfield Road tend to be well looked after, and owners are often surprised to find larvae in a wardrobe of good wool and cashmere. Cleanliness does not prevent it, because the larvae are drawn to the fibres and any soiling on them.
We look at the unused rooms first, then wardrobes and carpets, confirming the species. Treatment goes onto affected carpets and storage areas, and we give practical advice on laundering, airing and storing valuable clothes. We offer appointments to suit, including same day visits, and a free pest prevention survey alongside treatment. Outcomes depend on how long the larvae have been feeding.

Clean items before storage, as soiled wool is more attractive to larvae, and keep them in sealed, breathable containers. Check them periodically. We can discuss storage options that suit your wardrobes at the visit.
They mostly target natural fibres such as wool, silk and fur, particularly if items are soiled or stored undisturbed.
