Moth Pest Control

When we think about pests, we believe about cockroaches, flies, spiders or rodents but might not consider moths. We see these small cousins of butterflies as harmless creatures roaming around, but for some, they can be as destructive just like others.

These little cousins of butterflies are harmless creatures but seeing a massive number of them hovering in your house or nearby place is surely something you have to think about twice. Adult moth, in fact, don’t inflict risk but their younglings – their larvae feed on protein-rich (keratin) substances such as wool, cotton and silk. Hence, items made of these organic substances are at risk for damages.

Not only that, moths are also a critical concern to agricultural and ecological communities since they post severe damages to crops and forested areas.

Infestation management of these creatures requires deliberate methods and these are largely done by licensed pest control professionals. So, if you are experiencing such a situation, it is a good initiative to call on your pest control experts.

How serious is a moth infestation?

As above, households and businesses aren’t the only ones that are pestered with a moth infestation. Even agricultural and environmental communities are affected if an infestation isn’t managed. That’s why it is encouraged to take immediate action to stop moth problems.

As aforementioned, not only households and businesses are pestered by moths, even agricultural and ecological communities experience their wrath. An infestation caused by two kinds of moths, namely the fabric and pantry moths can bring extensive damages to your items and property. Hence, immediate action must be taken to restrain the infestation. If left unknown and source of infestation is not located, over a time period, a huge infestation can be too costly. Like we said, moth larvae feed on whatever natural materials they could find.

Getting Rid of Moths

Like any other infestation, the presence of moths can be quite frustrating. Moths can damage on items that are made of cotton, silk and wool, hence, our clothes and any other materials which are used in our homes are in danger.

In fact, there are different kinds of moth species, roughly 160,000 and many of which are yet to be described. Most moths are nocturnal, but there are as well which are active during twilight and daytime.

Here are a few tell-tale signs of moth infestation:

• Presence of maggots or larvae – these can be seen in cupboards, wardrobes and drawers. They are creamy-white in color and are caterpillar-like in appearance. The are about 1/2 inch long and they could develop into moths approximately from one month up to 2 decades.
• Vacated silken tubes or pupa – after having gone through as a caterpillar, moth larvae encase themselves in silken tubes to liberate themselves and grow to full-maturing becoming adult moths. These capsules, vacated or not are usually found in the closet, carpets and back of the furniture.
• Adult moths – they are rarely seen flying but most adult moths are seen crawling.

Performing a DIY method to dispose of they won’t do any good. Additionally, utilising pesticides is not even fitting in treating the infestation. In this case, the best method to controlling and disposing of these pests is to bring in the guidance of bug experts for they’ll help survey the degree of infestation, identify the species and recommend the treatment.
