It’s a good question many people in Eastbourne ask when they notice something isn't quite right. Keep an eye out for small holes appearing in clothes, carpets, or even upholstery – that's a classic sign of clothes moths or carpet moths at work. You might also spot adult moths flying around, often in quiet, dimly lit areas. Another clue could be tiny silky tubes or cases, which are actually where the moth larvae live and feed. Sometimes, with pantry moths, you'll find webbing in food containers, especially in cereals, flour, or dried fruit. If you’re seeing any of these, it’s a strong signal you've got a moth infestation.

Moths might seem harmless, but certain types can cause real headaches and significant moth damage. Clothes moths and carpet moths feast on natural fibres like wool, silk, and cotton, leaving behind unsightly holes in your favourite jumpers, cherished rugs, or even expensive upholstered furniture. Pantry moths, on the other hand, love to get into your dry food goods, contaminating them and making them unusable. While moths don't typically pose direct health risks to humans like some other pests, the damage they cause to your belongings and food can be costly and frustrating. That's where professional moth control really makes a difference.
