Many homeowners in Burnley ask how they can distinguish a moth infestation from general wear and tear. Look for these specific signs: irregular holes in natural fabrics (wool, silk, fur, or leather), small maggot-like larvae, or silken cocoons that look like grains of rice. You might also notice 'frass'—tiny droppings that look like fine sand—underneath rugs or at the back of wardrobes.Moths prefer dark, quiet spaces, which is why infestations often go unnoticed in spare rooms or under beds. If you see adult moths flying in a zig-zag pattern rather than toward the light, these are likely textile moths rather than common outdoor varieties. If you spot any of these signs, contact Pest Medic on 01254 963737 immediately. Early intervention is key to minimising damage to your valuables.
