Effective moth control by specialists

Moths are a pest that can affect properties on a large scale. If not treated quickly, moths can multiply quite fast, resulting in a serious infestation. Common clothes moths are between 5 mm and 7 mm and the larvae and the ones that cause damage to natural fibres like wool and cotton. Pantry moths are those who feed on stored food materials, often found in kitchen cupboards and larger storage areas. They are 10 mm in size and darker in colour. We can eradicate moth infestations completely, resulting in a safe storage environment - for your clothes, linens and food. We serve customers across Saundersfoot and the whole of South West Wales.

Ways to TREaT A moth infestation:

  • Chemical control – we spray chemical materials on places that have the highest amount of the infestation. This usually becomes effective after a few days. If the problem persists after the chemical fogging and residual insecticide, we can give it a second trial.
  • Heat treatment solutions – this mostly results in the same-day eradication of all the moths and larvae. This usually takes care of all the stages of moth's lifecycle - adults, nymphs, larvae and eggs.
  • Steam treatment
  • Freeze treatment

Some other ways to keep moths away

Moths can cause unsightly damage to clothes, food and property in your home or place of business. Here are some tips to avoid moth infestation:

Frequent change of vacuum bags: Emptying vacuum bags is an important step towards preventing moth eggs from accumulating.

Keep clothes clean: female moths often like to lay eggs on clothes stained with sweat. Cleaning them can keep them away.

Clean suitcases: bags, storage boxes and other containers can be a house for breeding moths. Cleaning them can prevent moth infestation.

Be vigilant: keep an eye for holes in garments and keep the rooms dry to avoid moth infestation.
