Common Types of Moths Invading Homes

Not all moths that get into your house are a threat to your belongings. The ones that cause problems are typically one of two types: those that eat fabrics and those that infest stored foods. Identifying which one you have is key to solving the infestation.

  • Clothes Moths: These are small, usually beige or golden-colored moths that avoid light and hide in dark, undisturbed places like closets, attics, or basements. It is their larvae, not the adults, that feed on and create holes in natural fibers like wool, silk, fur, and leather.
  • Pantry Moths (Indian Meal Moths): These moths are often found in kitchens and pantries. The adult moths have a distinctive two-toned wing pattern, with a coppery back half. Their larvae infest and contaminate stored food products like flour, cereal, grains, nuts, and spices.

Knowing the difference helps locate the source of the infestation, whether it’s a forgotten garment in a closet or an old bag of grain in the pantry.

Our Detailed Moth Control Treatment Process

At Mayco Pest & Termite Control, we understand that a moth infestation requires a thorough and methodical approach. Our process is designed to identify the source of the problem and apply an effective treatment plan customized to your specific situation. We pay close attention to the details that matter.

  • Initial Inspection: Our experienced technician will conduct a careful inspection of your home to determine the type of moth and locate the primary infestation sites. This could be in closets, storage areas, or your kitchen pantry.
  • Customized Treatment Plan: Based on our findings, we develop a treatment strategy. This involves applying targeted treatments to the cracks, crevices, and spaces where moths and their larvae hide. We focus our efforts where they will be most effective.
  • Source Elimination and Guidance: The most important step is addressing the source. We will help you identify and remove infested materials, whether it's a contaminated food item or a damaged garment, and provide guidance on how to prevent future issues.

Our goal is to resolve your current moth problem completely and give you the information you need to keep them from coming back.

The Limits of DIY Moth Traps and Sprays

When faced with moths, many people turn to sticky traps or aerosol sprays from the store. While these products may seem like a quick fix, they often fail to solve the actual problem. Moth traps are only designed to capture the adult moths, not the destructive larvae.

The larvae are the real source of the damage, and they live hidden away deep in fabrics or food packages. A few captured adults do little to stop the larvae from eating through your belongings. This is why you may find new damage even when traps are full.

A professional service goes beyond trapping adults to target the infestation at its source. An expert can locate hidden larval populations and apply treatments that can reach them, providing a level of control that DIY methods simply cannot match for a lasting solution.

FAQs About Moth Control in Denton

What is the difference between clothes moths and pantry moths?

Clothes moths are small, plain-looking moths whose larvae eat natural fibers like wool and silk, causing holes in clothing and rugs. Pantry moths are found in kitchens, and their larvae infest and contaminate dry goods like flour, cereal, and nuts.

Are moths harmful to people or pets?

Moths are not directly harmful to the health of people or pets. They do not bite or sting. The main issue they cause is the contamination of food products by pantry moths and the destructive, costly damage to fabrics and furniture caused by clothes moth larvae.

Why do I suddenly have a moth problem?

Moth infestations often start when an infested item is brought into the home. This could be a used piece of furniture, a rug, or even a bag of groceries or pet food from the store. Once inside, they find dark, quiet places to lay eggs.

How does professional moth treatment work?

A professional treatment involves a thorough inspection to find all infested areas. The technician then uses specialized products to treat cracks, crevices, and voids where larvae hide. This is much more effective than store-bought sprays that only treat surfaces.
