Professional Carpet Moth Control in Plumstead
Carpet moth in a Plumstead terrace has a favourite place, and it is the stairs. A wool stair runner is walked on down the middle and never at the edges, and the edges are exactly where the larvae can work undisturbed.
Edges, Stairs and Original Boards
The pattern is diagnostic once you know it: a hallway runner or stair carpet worn bare along its edges while the walked-on centre is untouched. Larvae avoid light and disturbance, so they take the margins - the same reason damage appears under the sofa, along a skirting run, beneath a rug and behind a door that always stands open.
Original floorboards make it worse. Gaps between boards give larvae shelter no vacuum will ever reach, so a room can look perfectly clean and still be supporting a population underneath the carpet.

Signs You May Need Carpet Moth Control in Plumstead
The full list is on the Carpet Moth Control Greenwich page.
- Damage that follows the quiet parts of the room. A hallway runner worn along its edges while the walked-on centre is untouched is a classic pattern.
- Small silken tubes or cases in the pile. The larvae build them from carpet fibre and debris, which is why they are the same colour as the carpet.
- 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 Plumstead
Treatment concentrates on the perimeter, the stair and landing edges, beneath furniture and under rugs rather than the middle of the floor, because that is where the larvae are.
