Professional Carpet Moth Control in Charlton

It Is Always the Part Nobody Walks On

Carpet moth larvae avoid light and disturbance and feed on keratin - wool, silk, felt and wool underlay. In a house that means under the sofa, along a skirting run and beneath a rug that has not moved in years. In an office it means under fixed seating, along the wall behind a row of desks and in a meeting room that is used twice a month.

The confirmation is always the same: damage on wool while a synthetic covering beside it is untouched. If a wool rug is being eaten and the man-made carpet next to it is perfect, that is your answer.

Signs You May Need Carpet Moth Control in Charlton

The full list is on the Carpet Moth Control Greenwich page.

• Bare or thinning patches in wool carpet. Typically at the edge of a room, under furniture, beneath a rug or behind a door - anywhere undisturbed.
• Small moths that crawl or flutter rather than fly properly. Carpet moths are weak fliers and tend to be seen low down, near skirtings.
• Damage on wool and not on synthetics. A useful confirmation: a wool rug attacked while a nylon carpet beside it is untouched.

How We Deal With Carpet Moths in Charlton

Treatment concentrates on perimeters, beneath furniture and under rugs rather than the walked-on middle of a room, and in commercial premises the low-traffic areas are the priority.
