Ilkeston lies across the border in Derbyshire, and we cover it. Former lace-industry terraces and later estates all suit moth larvae in quiet cupboards.
Ilkeston is in Derbyshire rather than Nottinghamshire, but we work there as we do across the Nottingham area. The town has Victorian terraces from its mining and lace days, plus later estates. In the terraces, deep cupboards and fitted carpets provide cover; on the estates, moths more often arrive with stored clothing or a second-hand sofa.
We inspect, identify the moth and treat wardrobes, carpets and soft furnishings where larvae are found. Then we explain how to wash or freeze clothes and prevent a repeat. Our visits are arranged to suit you, with same day appointments possible, and advice is free. Because every case differs, how quickly it clears depends on the number of rooms and how long the larvae have been feeding.
