Old terraces and former industrial premises in Old Basford offer many hidden, undisturbed corners where carpet and clothes moth larvae can feed unnoticed.
Some of the buildings around Old Basford began life as workplaces, and converted units can have floor voids, old insulation and stored furnishings in spaces that were never meant for living. Terraced homes nearby have their own quiet corners. In both, carpet moth larvae can work along the edges of fitted carpets and under furniture, where the damage appears as thin patches rather than neat holes.
We identify whether you have clothes moths, carpet moths or another fabric pest, then inspect the likely places. Treatment targets the infested carpet, soft furnishings and storage, and we explain how to deal with the clothes themselves. Staff are CRB checked and fully insured, and our advice is free. Clearing a long-standing problem can take longer than a recent one.
Both have fabric-feeding larvae, but they favour different materials and habits. Clothes moths prefer wool, silk and fur in wardrobes; carpet moths often feed on carpet edges and underlay. Identification guides the treatment.
They can harbour natural debris such as old nests, hair and lint, which larvae can eat. We check accessible voids as part of an inspection and advise if something needs removing.
They mostly target natural fibres such as wool, silk and fur, particularly if items are soiled or stored undisturbed.
