The problem

What you are dealing with

Bare patches appearing in a wool carpet under the sofa or along the skirting are the larvae feeding, not the moths you see flying. The adults do no damage at all — they are just the visible sign that something is eating downstairs.

Carpet beetles cause near-identical damage, and 'woolly bear' larvae are frequently blamed on moths. The species matters because the treatment differs.

Old birds' nests in a roof space, loft insulation and stored wool are a constant feeding source in older Somerset houses, and until they are dealt with the problem simply restarts.

Signs to look for

Bare patches in wool carpet under furniture, holes in knitwear, small silvery moths in wardrobes, or tiny mottled beetles on windowsills.

Moth & carpet beetle treatment FAQs

Are moths or carpet beetles eating my carpet?

Both leave bare patches in wool. Moths leave fine webbing and cylindrical cases, beetles leave shed bristly skins. We check before treating because the approach differs.

Will treatment damage my carpet or clothes?

No. We use products approved for textiles and test a discreet area first on anything delicate or antique.

How do I stop moths coming back?

Deal with the source, vacuum the edges and under furniture regularly, and store wool clean and sealed. We go through it with you on the visit.
