Moth Pest Control

It is very unlikely for some that moths are considered a pest. When we think about pests, we consider roaches, flies, spiders, rodent but moths. In some areas around the planet, most are a huge nuisance though they may not impose a higher risk to the health of humans and animals.

These little cousins of butterflies are harmless creatures but seeing a massive number of these hovering in your home or neighbouring area is surely something you have to consider twice. Adult moth, in fact, don’t inflict risk but their younglings – their larvae feed on protein-rich (keratin) substances like wool, cotton and silk. Hence, items made of these natural substances are at risk for damages.

The presence of these little cousins of butterflies signals cautious and alert to families. The adult moth is not really benign except for their younglings – the larvae. Moth larvae are capable of damaging household possessions which are naturally made of wool, cotton and silk.

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

How severe is a moth infestation?

It’s important that you have to identify first the sort of species which invade your home. It’s quite difficult to implement treatment management for the infestation if we cannot identify the type of moth nestling in your area.

As above, not only households and companies are pestered by moths, even agricultural and environmental 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 unidentified and source of infestation is not found, over a time period, a huge infestation could be too costly. Like we said, moth larvae feed on whatever natural materials they can find.

Getting Rid of Moths

Moth generally do not impose greater risk in health for pets and humans since they do not bite and sting. They also do not transmit diseases, but they might be mediums our water and food which potentially cause illnesses. However, the large presence of these creatures can be quite frustrating, most notably their larvae.

There are various types of moth species, around 160,000 and a high number of it are yet to be identified. Most moths are nocturnal, yet there are also which are active during dusk and daytime.

Most moths are nocturnal, but there are as well which are active during twilight and daytime. Cloth moths are more photophobic (do not get attracted to light). Whereas pantry moths are readily drawn to lights. There are tell-tale signs to search for moth infestation. Take heed of the following signs below:

• 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 can develop into moths approximately from one month up to 2 years.
• Vacated silken tubes or pupa – after having gone through as a caterpillar, moth larvae encase themselves in silken tubes to liberate themselves and develop to full-maturing becoming adult moths. These capsules, vacated or not are usually found in the closet, carpets and rear of the furniture.
• Adult moths – they are rarely seen flying but many adult moths are seen crawling.

Doing a DIY method to get rid of them will do little good. Moreover, using pesticides is not even advisable in treating the infestation. Thus, the best way to controlling and getting rid of the problem is to call in the support of pests experts for they will help assess the degree of infestation, identify the moth species and planning the treatment.
