Moth Heat Treatment
Help protect your clothing, carpets and furnishings with a professionally planned treatment for clothes moth activity.
Protect the fabrics that make your house a home
Clothes moth larvae feed on natural fibres, including wool, and can hide in wardrobes, stored textiles and undisturbed carpet edges. Finding the affected materials is an important first step before choosing a treatment.
Heat treatment suitability depends on the pest, the property and the materials present. We assess the situation, explain preparation and item-protection limits, and advise whether monitoring or additional measures may be needed.
Signs worth checking
- New holes or thinning patches in wool clothing and carpets
- Silken webbing, cases or larvae among textiles
- Small moths around wardrobes or undisturbed storage areas
These signs are not a diagnosis. Contact us to discuss identification before arranging treatment.
Before your treatment
Keep suspected items separate without moving them through other rooms. Do not discard clothing or empty every cupboard before speaking to us. We will explain which fabrics can remain, what needs separate care and which heat-sensitive items must be removed.
Typical heat treatments take 3–6 hours; your schedule and safe re-entry time will be confirmed for your property. Follow your technician’s pest-specific instructions.
Aftercare & prevention
Regularly clean wardrobe corners and carpet edges, check stored natural-fibre items and store clean garments appropriately. Monitoring traps can help identify activity but do not replace treatment.
Ask us about any applicable treatment terms before booking. The bed bug guarantee should not be assumed to cover a different pest.
Common questions
Are the adult moths causing the damage?
It is the clothes moth larvae that damage textiles. Identifying the insect and locating its food sources helps us plan the right approach.
Can every garment be heat treated?
No. Materials, finishes and care instructions vary. Tell us about delicate or valuable items so we can discuss suitability and separate care before treatment.
