Sherwood has Victorian villas, terraces and flats near its shopping parade. Moths can turn up wherever textiles are stored, from a wardrobe to a shop stockroom.
People in Sherwood sometimes first notice moths while sorting a wardrobe in spring, but the larvae have often been feeding since the previous autumn. Villas and terraces here give them good cover: cupboards in alcoves, wool carpets on stairs, and old trunks. Homes above the shops on the parade can also see moths drifting in from a stockroom.
We inspect homes and small business premises alike. Once we identify the moth we check wardrobes, carpets and stored fabric, apply treatment to the affected areas and explain how to wash, freeze or dry clean valuable items. Commercial customers receive a free survey and written report. Prices are fixed, with no call-out charge, and we can often fit appointments around opening hours.
Adult moths can fly between connected spaces, particularly if there are gaps in floors or stairwells. Finding where larvae are feeding is the sure way to decide whether the source is above or below.
They are small, silky or silk-and-fibre tubes or patches of webbing stuck to fabric, with tiny dark grains of droppings nearby. Seeing these means larvae have been feeding, not just that an adult flew in.
They mostly target natural fibres such as wool, silk and fur, particularly if items are soiled or stored undisturbed.
